    General Death.

    Russian general Suvorov, portraited as Death driving horse, accompanied by dwarf.

    General Suvorov brought death to 20 thousand innocent civilians murdered after conquering Warsaw in year 1795.

      The bronze equestrian statue on the pass, created by a Russian artist, is not well liked by his compatriots. The portrayal of Suvorov as a slender old man is not heroic enough for them.

      Suvorov himself was not lucky with his famous journey across the Alps. Slandered, he fell out of favor with the Tsar before he returned home, and a few months later he died a broken man in St. Petersburg.
