Pictures of the Interiors as they were

Thank you Joanna for all your valuable information, comprehensive research and providing the links. The Tsarselo.ru web site is fantastic. The pictures are amazing - for me, it is the first time that I have ever seen the right (left in Russia) wing.

I didn't see a thread that this would fit in, so I'll put it up here.

Joanna pointed me in the direction of this fabulous photo showing the Russian Town and in the upper righthand corner, the AP. Until now, I've never seen an aerial shot of the palace from the front.

Wow! Thank you! Amazing how close the roads are to the Palace on two sides!

I hadn't seen Russian Town from this perspective, either.  Being able to see the AP in the background really does make this picture.  Thank you for posting.
