An equestrian statue of Peter I, also known as Peter the Great, stands on a stone pedestal. The bronze statue depicts Peter I in 18th-century attire, including a hat, a jacket with a ruffled collar, and breeches, riding a horse. He is gesturing with his left arm outstretched. The horse is depicted in mid-stride with its mouth open. The pedestal is constructed of rough-hewn stones of various colors, including gray, pink, and brown, forming a rough, uneven surface. A bronze plaque with a two-headed eagle emblem, possibly a coat of arms, is affixed to the front of the pedestal. The statue is located in Baltiysk, Russia, at the westernmost point of Kaliningrad Oblast. The background consists of a cloudy sky with patches of blue, and further in the distance, some sparse vegetation and sand dunes are visible, suggesting a coastal or open landscape.
