This lavishly illustrated survey symbolizes nearly three centuries of Russian artistic wealth during the Romanov dynasty's reign. Every sovereign was crowned in the Kremlin's cathedral, with coronation ceremonies aimed at restoring the former capital's lost grandeur. This exhibition catalogue uncovers a Moscow often overlooked by visitors, revealing the dynasty's legacy through art. Between 1820 and 1860, Moscow flourished in literature, music, painting, architecture, and minor arts, culminating in the renowned pan-Russian exhibition of 1882. The imperial family and surrounding grand families commissioned works from celebrated manufacturers like Baccarat, Cartier, and Fabergé. The beauty of the showcased objects evokes the essence of Orthodox liturgy, the splendor of court life, and the magnificence of imperial palaces, while highlighting Moscow's role as a hub of modern art and Constructivism in the early twentieth century. The extraordinary photographic collection from the Musée de l’Elysée and the film archive from Krasnogorsk immerse readers in the intimate world of Tsar Nicolas II, the last of the Romanovs, and his family, offering a glimpse into their lives and the artistic legacy of their era.
