Demut-Malinovsky and S.S. Pimenov), images of Attic warriors on tower of the Main Admiralty (by models of F.F. Shchedrin), a number of columns for Kazan Cathedral and St. Isaac's Cathedral, and plinths for monuments to M.I. Kutuzov and M.B. Barclay de Tolly (1832-36). He lived in his own house at 50 Pryazhka Embankment.
