<head>APPENDIX TO CHAPTER X</head>
<div type="numeric" n="1">
<head>DAMAGE TO THE KREMLIN</head>
<p>I myself verified the damage to the Kremlin, which I visited immediately after the
bombardment. The Little Nicolai Palace, a building of no particular importance, which
was occupied occasionally by receptions of one of the Grand Duchesses, had served as
barracks for the yunkers. It was not only bombarded, but pretty well sacked;
fortunately there was nothing in it of particular historical value.</p>
<p>Usspensky Cathedral had a shell-hole in one of the cupolas, but except for a few feet
of mosaic in the ceiling, was undamaged. The frescoes on the porch of
Blagovestchensky Cathedral were badly damaged by a shell. Another shell hit the
corner of Ivan Veliki. Tchudovsky Monastery was hit about thirty times, but only one
shell went through a window into the interior, the others breaking the brick
window-moulding and the roof cornices. </p>
<p>The clock over the Spasskaya Gate was smashed. Troitsky Gate was battered, but easily
reparable. One of the lower towers had lost its brick spire.</p>
<p>The church of St. Basil was untouched, as was the great Imperial Palace, with all the
treasures of Moscow and Petrograd in its cellar, and the crown jewels in the
Treasury. These places were not even entered.</p>

<head>LUNATCHARSKY’s DECLARATION</head>
<p>“Comrades! You are the young masters of the country, and although now you have much
to do and think about, you must know how to defend your artistic and scientific
treasures. </p>
<p>“Comrades! That which is happening at Moscow is a horrible, irreparable misfortune….
The People in its struggle for the power has mutilated our glorious capital.</p>
<p>“It is particularly terrible in these days of violent struggle, of destructive
warfare, to be Commissar of Public Education. Only the hope of the victory of
Socialism, the source of a new and superior culture, brings me comfort. On me weighs
the responsibility of protecting the artistic wealth of the people…. Not being able
to remain at my post, where I had no influence, I resigned. My comrades, the other
Commissars, considered this resignation inadmissible. I shall therefore remain at my
post…. And moreover, I understand that the damage done to the Kremlin is not as
serious as has been reported…. </p>
<p>“But I beg you, comrades, to give me your support…. Preserve for yourselves and your
descendants the beauty of our land; be the guardians of the property of the
People.</p>
<p>“Soon, very soon, even the most ignorant, who have been held in ignorance so long,
will awake and understand what a source of joy, strength and wisdom is art….” </p>
