Ukrainian Nazis with their US-NATO backers destroy panorama “The Defence of Sevastopol 1854 -1855”

Maria Zaharova writes:

We have now witnessed an attack by the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the panorama “The Defense of Sevastopol 1854 – 1855”. According to media reports, it has been almost completely destroyed. Let me remind you that Franz Roubaud’s panorama “The Defense of Sevastopol 1854 – 1855” is a world-famous work of battle painting, dedicated to the key battle of the Crimean War* — the assault on Malakhov Hill on June 6, 1855, when the Russian troops managed to repel the attack of the superior forces of the Anglo-French army.

This is yet another proof of why Westerners are using the Kiev regime for their own interests. They need, among other things, to destroy evidence of their crimes and defeats.

They have already become adept at destroying historical monuments in their own territory, and now they want to destroy monuments in the post-Soviet space as well. They tried to destroy them with our own hands by spreading pseudoscientific materials and pseudo-historical textbooks, trying to influence our domestic politics. It didn’t work.

Then, using the Kiev regime, drones, explosives, and artillery, they are trying to physically destroy these monuments, no longer hiding their involvement.

This is another barbaric act committed by the Kiev regime against a civilian object. As the head of Sevastopol said:

“Barbarians and inhumans deliberately targeted what is dear to us, trying to destroy our essence. Only complete scumbags could do such a thing – deliberately attacking a museum.”

Grigory Karasin, Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on International Affairs, adds:

The deliberate night attack by the Kiev junta on a monument of Russian history in Sevastopol can only provoke hatred towards the Ukrainian fascists in our society.

To be honest, after reading today about the drone attack on one of our sacred sites — the Panorama Museum “The Defense of Sevastopol in 1854 – 1855”, which I’ve had the privilege of visiting many times, I’m once again convinced of the bestial nature of the Kiev regime and its military. The parallels with Nazi Germany, which also bombed this museum in 1942, are quite fitting.

We should not forgive this.

Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed the Panorama in Sevastopol just like the Nazis did in 1942.

The strike was targeted specifically — cameras recorded the drone being aimed at the building.

Franz Roubaud painted this panorama in the suburbs of Munich — a pavilion was specially built for the canvas. A separate railway line was even laid for it — the 115-by-14-metre canvas weighed over four tons.

Between the viewing platform and Roubaud’s canvas, there were built almost a thousand square meters of war — real earth of Sevastopol’s bastions, genuine shells, shrapnel, pieces of ammunition, half-ruined bunkers. The junction between them and the paint was done in such a way that the eye could no longer distinguish the boundary. The effect was that the viewer physically found himself on Malakhov Hill at noon on June 6, 1855.

Moreover, Roubaud dispersed the drama throughout the entire circle. Four thousand figures in constant motion, from the head-wounded Nakhimov to sailors carrying shells. The person had to constantly turn around, examining the details and reliving the battle.

At the same time, all the faces on the canvas were real — the artist tracked down surviving veterans of the defense at the beginning of the 20th century, sketched them, studied portraits of friends, descriptions. So at the opening on May 14, 1905, the gray-haired participants of the battle looked into the eyes of their own youth, frozen in smoke.

The Panorama had already been burned once. On June 25, 1942, a German bomb set the building on fire. Soldiers, sailors, and firefighters cut the flaming canvas into pieces to pull it out of the fire. Eighty-six fragments were saved — they were evacuated on the “Tashkent” under continuous bombing.

Due to soot, flames, and seawater, the original could not simply be sewn back together and returned to the walls — so for 12 years, Academician Yakovlev’s battalionists recreated the canvas based on archives and photos.

So the Panorama was a double monument — to the heroism of the 19th century defenders and to the heroism of the Great Patriotic War rescuers. Now it has been burned by an Ukronazi drone, controlled with Palantir via Starlink — USA.

Alas, at fire temperatures, the craquelure melts, and the pigment changes its molecular structure irreversibly. The canvas, which survived the most terrible war in history, will have to be restored from scratch again.

While Ukraine must be destroyed.
