Rublev to Fabergé
Author: Bob Jones University. Art Gallery and Museum
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Art objects, Russian
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
Imperial icons, Fabergé Easter eggs and Russian art come together in one exhibit at the Sargent-Wilson Museum & Gallery at Heritage Green (formerly M&G at Heritage Green), to create a microcosm of Russian art and culture. The new exhibit showcases Russian icons in the M&G collection that haven't been on display in almost five years. But this exhibit is more than just a display. It's a timeline of the journey of Russian art to America, and it's designed to give visitors a feel for the unique gala and glamour of imperial Russian culture. The exhibit features pieces owned by the Museum & Gallery as well as items on loan from the Cleveland Museum of Art, the Hillwood Museum in Washington, D.C., and others. It brings together some of the finest Fabergé jewelry, paintings and Russian icons. According to M&G's director Mrs. Erin Jones, the entire exhibit is designed to put art in the context of a real culture. - BJU Collegian.

Selling Russia's Treasures
Author: N. I︠U︡ Semenova
Publisher: Abbeville Press
ISBN: 9780789211545
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Selling Russia's Treasures documents one of the great cultural dramas of the twentieth century: the sale, by a cash-hungry Soviet government, of the artistic treasures accumulated by the Russian aristocracy over the centuries and nationalized after the October 1917 revolution. An astonishing variety of objects, from icons and illuminated manuscripts to Fabergé eggs and Old Master paintings, entered the collections of wealthy Westerners like Andrew Mellon and Armand Hammer in the 1920s and 30s. Written by the leading experts in the field and long regarded as the definitive book on the subject, the original Russian edition of Selling Russia's Treasures is sought after scholars and laymen alike. Now, for the first time, it is made available in English, in a revised and expanded edition that includes a new chapter on the secret files of the Hermitage, previously considered lost, as well as new research on the sale of religious art, and of twentieth-century French masterworks from the Museum of New Western Art. Numerous color plates reunite long-dispersed works in a virtual museum that illustrates the powerful blow inflicted on Russia's cultural heritage by these secretive sales, and rare photographs and archival documents help bring this buried history to light.
