Cкажи, какой памятник ты поставил Петру I, и я скажу, кто ты
There are plenty of monuments to Peter in Saint Petersburg. Actually, you could put up a monument to him anywhere in the city and it would be appropriate. He was a high-profile figure with a multi- dimensional personality. He is worthy being remembered, yet the ways this is done differ, and the monuments to him do not resemble each other at all. Most of them are not monuments to Peter, but rather to those who commissioned them, those behind putting them up, or to the sculptors. The famous proverb could be rephrased to: "Show me your monument to Peter I, and I’ll tell you who you are".
