Photographer’s Note
Another warm day in Moscow.
We decided to go to the Polytechnical Museum.
We walked past this amazing building to which i found out it had very dark truths within the walls.
It is situated on Lubyanka Square, the word Lubyanka is a very popular name for the headquarters of KGB and Prison.
Designed by Alexander V. Ivanov in 1897.
After the revolution the building was seized by the government for the secret police, then it was called Cheka.
Still to this day it is now used for the Federal Security Service of the Russian Federation (FSB)
One of the many reasons i love Moscow is for all its history and beautiful buildings, no matter how many dark truths they hold.
I hope i really showed this building in all its true beauty.
