This view is rotated westward (counterclockwise) from the previous photo. In this view, geological features of the escarpment (bluff) are evident. The red church is identified on the old Tobolsk map as "15." The building to the right, and behind, the church is identified on the old Tobolsk map as "16" and its legend translates as "former public school." The house where Mendeleev was born is visible at the extreme right at the edge of the photo, just behind the right edge of the "16" building.
