One of the earliest chronicle shootings in Petersburg: the photo was taken on the feast of the Epiphany during the annual water consecration ceremony in the Neva (water). In the background, the Jordan is a temporary wooden temple, installed during the Epiphany. In the foreground, vases made of polished porphyry at the Elfdalen Lapidary Factory in Sweden, which in 1830 came to Russia as a gift of the King of Sweden and were in the Tauride Palace until 1832. After that they were installed on the Palace pier together with lions (visible in the background) as a decoration in 1832. Lions are made at the Alexandrovsky iron foundry in St. Petersburg on the model of the sculptor IP Prokofiev .
