The Bronze Rider? The inscription is bilingual, Latin and Russian:
 
PETRO PRIMO CATARINA SECVNDA
PETRU PERVOMU EKATERINA VTORAJA
 
"To Peter the First, Catherine the Second"
 
The cases are the dative and the nominative, respectively.

There is that statue of Peter the Great, before the Winter Palace as I
think, the one on that great big granite boulder. It's inscribed, as I
recall, both in Latin and Russian

To Peter
By Catherine
