The symbols of eternity and immortality are everywhere in Kremlin - plants like spruce or fir, materials like gold of domes and icons, huge bells that should immortalise by their sound the name of the tsar who ordered to cast them.
The peacock is a symbol of immortality because the ancient people believed that this bird had flesh that did not decay after death. The peacock naturally replaces his feathers annually; by this reason becoming also a symbol of renewal. Both Origen and Augustine refer to peacocks as a symbol of resurrection.
The Greeks dedicated the peacock to Juno, the goddess of sky and stars, in recognition of the golden circles and blue background of the peacock’s tail.
The Peacock fountain in the Secret Garden of Moscow Kremlin can be considered also as a renewal symbol - inaugurated May 17 of 2008, it became a donation to State Museum of Kremlin from Investbank (investment bank company). In 2006 the same organisation sponsored also reinstallation and restoring of the same landscape of the Secret Garden that existed before the revolution of 1917.
As the one of the top-managers of Investbank have said in his inauguration speech “The investments in the conservation of the historical appearance of Kremlin are the investments in the future of Russia".
