Also known as "Inevitable" and "Bolshevik Stands Guard Inside the Winter Palace", it shows the tsar's throne-room, in the center of which is a soldier with a lowered gun, in the background is the throne, no longer a symbol or the tsar's regalia, but simply an empty chair.... The painting now hangs in the hall of the Lenin Museum.

One of my favourite paintings. The look on the revolutionary's face,in absolute awe of the luxury the bourgeois and royals indulged in while he and his comrades lived in squalor. absolutely brilliant.
