Since the 10th century similar entrances to the walled towns crowned by a church above the gates were typical for most of the settlements. At first they were wooden, then stone, and they have survived only in the descriptions of the chronicles, rare extant images and modern reconstructions. The Golden Gate in Kiev and Novgorod are the most famous of the surviving monuments. This miniature recreates the wooden version of the similar gate. Two miniature spruces, three cannons and five crosses made of beads supplement the composition. Cannons can be positioned both below at the base of the fortress and on the platforms of the first tier. Carved bas-relief, typical for such structures, is constructed from glue stones, chains and ornament created using prints on a transparent printer film. On the entry ramps of the miniature is placed the emblem of Kiev, the capital of ancient Rus and modern Ukraine.
