Art objects from different parts of Russia - 2

Just the ad of the motorcycle shop, Voronezh

I continue posting funny art objects photos. Now it is masterpieces from Voronezh, Lipetsk, Orel and Yelets.
One more advertising construction in Voronezh, except the motorcyclist, is a fairytale fish. There is a legend that Voronezh supplied fish to tsar court. In gratitude the tsar gave people the ring. In Voronezh it was decided to put it on the fish fin and release the fish into the river. Some time later it became Peter the Great meal.
Now as you can guess the shop selling fish made metal construction for attracting buyers.
