Russia donates Peter the Great statue to France
(5 Oct 2017) Russia has donated a statue of Peter the Great to the French Academy of Sciences to mark 300 years since the Russian czar visited Paris in a pivotal moment in his crusade to open his country toward the West.
In unveiling the bust Thursday, Russian Deputy Culture Minister Alla Manilova told The Associated Press it's a gesture that underlines the depths of our relations.
She also called it a gesture of historic justice: While the French academy holds busts of other great world thinkers, she said, there was one who wasn't here — it was Peter.
The ceremony in the prestigious, domed Paris academy comes as French President Emmanuel Macron has cautiously sought to improve ties with Russia after years of East-West tensions over Moscow's actions in Syria and Ukraine.

The Legend of the Monument to Peter the Great
In 1997, on the Golden Island, in the center of the Russian capital, the sculptor Surab Zereteli erected a nearly 100 meters high monument. It shows the reforming Czar Peter I. But, the Muscovites rumor, the gentleman with the scroll and wafting cloak isn't Peter at all, but actually Columbus.
Surab Zereteli, the founder of the first museum for contemporary art in Russia, wanted to give the Americans a Columbus statue for the 500th anniversary of the discovery of America. Nobody, however, not the USA, not Spain, not any Latin American country, wanted it. So, according to legend, in some mysterious way the statue received a new head, that of the first Russian emperor and now stands in Moscow.
