The author of all of them is Matvey Manizer. Local residents, passing by, periodically rub something for good luck.
Luzhkov bridge

Naprudnaya Tower of the Novodevichy Convent
The elegant white and red turret of the Novodevichy Convent, whose stones are able to fulfill desires, is often called Sophia. It was here that the sister of Emperor Peter I, who dared to rebel against her royal relative, languished in captivity. At that moment she was 40 years old, her imprisonment was long, therefore it is believed that all her vital energy was absorbed by the stones of the tower. Now they are slowly giving away the accumulated power of an extraordinary person, fulfilling the cherished desires of modern tourists.
