Foxing throughout.<br /> <br /> A scarce catalog titled "Livret de la Galerie Impériale de l'Ermitage de Saint-Pétersbourg contenant l'explication des tableaux qui la composent avec de courtes notices sur les autres objets d'art ou de curiosité qui y sont exposés" spans an impressive 531 pages. It predominantly features a thorough room-by-room walkthrough of the galleries complete with comprehensive descriptions of each painting. The catalog opens with a concise historical overview and includes an index emphasizing its academic rigor. Noteworthy is a large folding map and a chart on the final pages that presents a breakdown of the number of artists and paintings sorted by their national school and detailing the acquisitions made by each of the four monarchs Catherine the Great Paul I Alexander I and Nicholas I who augmented the collection. This chart reveals that out of the 1692 paintings in the Hermitage as of 1838 a significant portion 1385 was acquired by Catherine the Great. The entries throughout the catalog are densely packed with information yet written in a straightforward unadorned style. De L'Imprimerie D'Édouard Pratz & Cie unknown

Kallinin and Materials Relating to the Topography of Finds of Russian Coins Fourteenth to twentieth Centuries Registered by the Hermitage in 1948-74 by M. Sotnikova. For Russian numismatics the socialistic era started with the end of all private coin collections: most of them were seized by the new government and distributed amongst nationalized museums. Others were taken abroad while some were simply stolen and got lost. During the entire Soviet period the numismatic science had only a quasi official status: it was a matter of the national academic institutes and museums. The reason was that in the USSR the circulation of precious metal of all shapes and kinds - that includes coins - was strictly supervised by the state. The purchase and sale of coins made of precious metal that were regarded "exchange valuables" was the privilege of the state and prohibited for private persons since 1918. Anyone undertaking such transactions was severely punished. The only things allowed to collect were coins made of copper bronze or similar metals. Avrora hardcover
