At the “Madeleine” station of the Paris metro, you can see an unusual stained-glass window covering an entire wall. It is “Little Hen Ryaba” — a character from a Russian folk tale. The story’s message is that one must cherish their fragile happiness. It is one of the first tales read to children in Russia. The stained glass, with an area of about 40 square meters, is a gift from the Moscow metro to the Paris metro. It was created by artist Ivan Lubennikov, who also decorated Moscow metro stations. The work consists of 20 different panels and symbolizes all of Russian culture. On the “hen,” there are depictions of a samovar, the first satellite, church domes with crosses, Soviet symbols, and Malevich’s painting “Black Square.” And in the center is an egg weighing more than 80 kg. The panels were made by craftsmen at the glass factory in Gusev-Khrustalny. The stained glass was installed in Paris in 2009. Earlier, in 2006, the vestibule of the “Kievskaya” station in Moscow was opened in Art Nouveau style, designed after the old Paris metro stations. The twisted fence, tiles, and curb stone were delivered from France. This was a gift from the French to the people of Moscow.
