Anna Ostroumova-Lebedeva's 1942 woodcut "The Monument to Peter I" depicts a simplified silhouette of the iconic equestrian statue of Peter the Great in St. Petersburg. The artist uses bold black lines and white space to convey the monument's imposing presence, with the sky and surrounding landscape rendered in a stylized manner. This artwork captures the enduring legacy of the Russian emperor and showcases Ostroumova-Lebedeva's masterful command of the woodcut medium.
