Date estimated., "Extremely important and highly sought-after 15-foot-wide view of Moscow, taken from within the walls of the Kremlin. The view consists of 10 lithographed sheets, colored by hand, all with titles in French and Russian. The view was printed by Lemercier in Paris in 1848 and published by Daziaro in Moscow and St. Petersburg. The drawings for the view were made by Dmitry Stepanovich Indeitsev (or Indeisseff). The total extent of the panorama viewing angle is approximately 270°. Views from the Kremlin and nearby landmarks became favorite spots for panoramic photographs later in the 19th century, as part of an extended Grand Tour. The view captures the full grandeur of Russian society in the middle of the 19th century, with its impressive architecture, regiments of troops in parade-ground finery, and a guarded carriage, perhaps with members of the Imperial family, driving through the square. The sheets are labeled: 1. Николаевскіи Дворецъ въ Кремлѣ | Palais Nikolaiewsky, du Kremlin [Nicholas Palace in the Kremlin] 2. Василіи Блаженныи виденъ съ Кремля | Église de St. Basile, Vue du Kremlin [Basil the Blessed visible from the Kremlin] 3.
