This year, the Russian Life Wall Calendar returns to St. Petersburg for the first time in five years. Featuring the work of Russian photographer Svetlana Shchekina, we follow Russia's colorful and vibrant "Venice of the North" through the seasons, visiting its beautiful churches, canals and byways in both daytime and night.
 
The calendar's twelve beautiful photos of Peter the Great's city will transport you to the former tsarist capital, the city of White Nights, home to Gogol and Dostoyevsky, Shostakovich and Akhmatova.
 
This great calendar is the perfect decoration for any Russophile's wall, home or office.
  • The beautiful pictures (9x12 inches!) of St. Petersburg are printed on thick, glossy stock to make every photo pop
  • The date pages are printed on normal white stock, to make jotting down notes and appointments (in the nice, large date spaces) smudge free
  • Spiral-bound with quality, double-ring wire – this makes it durable, plus lets it lay flat against the wall
  • Over 200 important historical dates with "round" anniversaries
  • Major Russian Orthodox, Western Christian, Jewish, Islamic and Buddhist holidays
  • National holidays of both Russia and the US, including most notable Russian professional days 
  • Main Canadian and UK holidays
  • Phases of the moon
  • Months and days of the weeks are bilingual, all else is in English only
  • Printed on post-consumer recycled paper, FSC certified

In short, a great gift idea for others and yourself!

About the Photographer: Svetlana Shchekina is a lifelong resident of St. Petersburg. Her passion for photography began as a hobby and turned into an obsession when, in 2006, she began to post her photos on PhotoSight. "From that moment," she says, "my life changed dramatically. I found my habitat. I had the opportunity to exhibit my works, receive feedback, study, and most importantly - to communicate with people who, like me, are passionate about photography. I love to photograph the city, especially in the evening, when the lights go out and the city begins to sparkle. I love to shoot landscapes, I want to share with all of the beauty that I see." She has participated in several domestic and international exhibitions.
