RUSSIA - The Bolshoi Theatre

I think this is the old picture showing Bolshoi Theatre judging from the vintage picture and their outfit.  I wonder what year was this picture taken!  Anyhow, this is a great card from postcrosser Daria.  Thank you so much for the card and wonderful stamps.


"The Bolshoi Theatre  is a historic theatre in Moscow, Russia, designed by architect Joseph Bové, which holds performances of ballet and opera. The theatre's original name was the Imperial Bolshoi Theatre of Moscow.

The Bolshoi Ballet and Bolshoi Opera are amongst the oldest and most renowned ballet and opera companies in the world. The main building of the theater, rebuilt and renovated several times during its history, is a landmark of Moscow and Russia (its iconic neoclassical facade is depicted on the Russian 100-ruble banknote)."
