Strait Gustvasverd

Strait between the Iso-Mustosaari (Komendantsky) and Pikku Mustosaari (Gospitalny) islands in a frosty winter. The buildings of the naval hospital can be seen on the right, and the ships of the Finnish Navy frozen into the ice are on the left. At the end of the 18th century, according to Strengporten’s plans, the fortifications of the island were modernized, several barracks and a new pier were built.
