The book investigates in particular the historic role of St. Petersburg as Russia's window to the West, and features the great masterworks of Western European art collected and prized by Romanov tsars, from Peter the Great (who ruled from 1721~25) to the last of the dynasty, Nicholas II (who ruled from 1874~1918). Included are masterpieces of painting, drawing, printmaking, porcelain, silver, and tapestry~over one hundred works in all, drawn exclusively from the extraordinary collection of the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg. The works are presented clearly by genre, and allow the reader to see and understand the role of successive Russian rulers, the evolution of taste, and changing values as applied to Western art practice. The interaction between East and West~including Russian cultural consumption of Western European tastes~emerges as a major theme. The Collections of the Romanovs also advances our knowledge of the history of taste and patronage in Russia. Sumptuously illustrated, scholarly yet accessible, this book is required reading for anyone interested in Russia's imperial past. …
