"Souvenir from Kyiv" is an album of the beginning of the 20th century from 25 views of Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine and one of the most important cities of the Russian Empire of that time. Among the attractions presented are cathedrals, monasteries, monuments, educational and cultural institutions, squares, busy streets, a train station, bridges across the Dnieper River and buildings related to the commercial life of the city. The images in the album are phototypes created using a chemical printing process that was widely used before the invention of flat offset printing. Signatures on each phototype are made in Russian, French and German. Many of the historic buildings shown were destroyed during World War II, making the album an important document of a vanished era in the city's history.
