19th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Travel
The merchant's house. Cultural heritage
We pay too little attention to the problem of the destruction of cultural monuments. The photo shows the old "House of the Merchant" in Ekaternburg (18th century). There are a million such buildings in the world, so why did I choose this? It is located in the very center of the Urals in Russia. The restorers are afraid to damage the rare architecture and do not work on it, but this only destroys the building.
