A close-up shot shows a descriptive plaque in front of a framed image of a sculpture. The plaque, printed in Russian, details a sculpture of an angel with a cupola from St. Catherine's Church on Vasilievsky Island in St. Petersburg, Russia. The sculpture is made of wood and copper, stands 5.5 meters high and weighs 2.2 tons. It was created between 1811-1823 by architect Mikhailov A.A. and sculptor Prokofiev I.P. The text further explains that the angel held a copper cross and was one of the visible heavenly patrons of St. Petersburg. It mentions damage during World War II and restoration efforts. The framed image next to the plaque displays a building facade with red tulips in the foreground.
