«Genoese fortress. Night»
The Genoese Fortress (Feodosia) is a medieval fortification in the city of Feodosia, Crimea, built by the Genoese Republic in the XIV century to defend its largest possession in the Crimea. Located on the shore of the Feodosiya Bay in the southern part of the city. Currently, the historical and architectural reserve "Genoese Fortress Kafa". It is a federal cultural heritage site. The fortress had two lines of fortifications: the citadel and the outer part. In the 19th century, most of the structures were dismantled. The southern wall of the citadel with two towers (the tower of St. Clement and the tower of Crisco), part of the western wall, gate pylons, several towers in different parts of the city (Dock, Constantine, Thomas, consul Giovanni di Scaffa) have survived to this day. A bridge, Turkish baths and several Armenian churches have also survived on the territory closest to the citadel. This image shows the towers of Crisco and Clement.
This was my walking trip across the Eastern Crimea, the so-called Cimeria.
This photo shows one of the most beautiful places in the Eastern Crimea, cape Kapchik, on the left in the frame - Golubaya (Delimanskaya) Bay, on the right - Blue Bay. Located on the territory of the Novy Svet nature reserve. This place, due to its picturesqueness, appears in many Russian films filmed at different times.
The nature reserve is located.
This photo, among my other works, participates in a large Book and Exhibition Project supported by the Grant of the President of Russia "Art Geography of Russia", section "Art Geography of Crimea".
The image can also be printed in other sizes (upon request).
