Russia: Bolshoi Theatre

Today I got a postcard from Russia.

It shows the Bolshoi Theatre in Moscow. The Bolshoi Theatre was opened in 1825 and the main building was built in the Neoclassical style by Joseph Bové. When it was opened, it was, like all theatres in Russia at that time, an imperial property. It holds ballet and opera performances. Today it is one of the oldest and biggest theatres in Russia and the World's biggest ballet company.
It is an official card: RU-3702892


Stamps:
Russian Kremlins (two from set of twelve) (issued 01-10-2009)


Thank You very much Alina!
