I dedicate this photo to my good flickr friend Julia from Kiev! Kievskaya Metro station in the Moscow Metro is named after the nearby Kievsky Railway station. Three of the Moscow Metro lines connect at Kievskaya, this picture is from the station on the Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya line. Kievskaya was opened in 1953 and is lavishly decorated in the quasi-baroque style that predominated in the early 1950s. The plastered ceiling is decorated with a series of 24 frescoes by various artists depicting life in Ukraine. This large mosaic at the end of the platform commemorates the 300th anniversary of the reunification of Russia and Ukraine. HDR from five shots, -4, -2, 0, +2, +4 Canon EOS 500D, EF-S10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM. Processed with Photomatix Pro 3.2 and Photoshop Elements 7.0.
