On the left the Upper Savior's Church,
sometimes called "Behind the Golden Lattice or Rail" was part of the
Terem Palace. It was built by Bazhen Ogurtsov, Antip Konstantinov, Trefil
Sharutin and Larion Ushakov in 1635-6, during the reign of Mikhail Feodorovich,
over the Tsarina's Golden Room. It was a private family church. To the right is
the small white Church of the Deposition of the Robe (Tserkov' Rizpolozhenia)
built in 1484-86 by Pskov masters for the church officials. The photo's left
border is the Palace of Facets and the right is the corner of the Cathedral of
the Assumption.
