This small black and white photograph shows a line of soldiers in uniform, standing at attention in a parade. The photograph is part of a larger book, titled "Le Président en Russie", meaning "The President in Russia". The photo was taken in Saint Petersburg in 1897, and is an example of photojournalism. It is likely that the photo was taken to illustrate the text in the book, and the author of the book was likely the photographer as well.
