The State Historical Museum of Russia between Red Square and Manege Square in Moscow. / A moszkvai Állami Történelmi Múzeum a Lovarda téren.
Pictures taken in Moscow, Russia, May 2011. On my way to a conference, I stopped in the capital for one day.
Képek Moszkvában 2011. májusában, amikor oroszországi utamat egy napra megszakítottam a fővárosban, hogy az oroszkönyvekből ismert várost személyesen is megnézhessem (érdekes és nagyon jó érzés volt egy könyvekből és képekről ismert városban sétálgatni).
The State Historical Museum of Russia is a museum of Russian history wedged between Red Square and Manege Square in Moscow. Its exhibitions range from relics of prehistoric tribes that lived on the territory of present-day Russia, through priceless artworks acquired by members of the Romanov dynasty. The present structure was built based on Vladimir Osipovich Shervud's (or Sherwood, 1833–97) neo-Russian design between 1875 and 1881. The first 11 exhibit halls officially opened in 1883 during a visit from the Tsar and his wife. Then in 1894 Tsar Alexander III became the honorary president of the museum and the following year, 1895, the museum was renamed the Tsar Alexander III Imperial Russian History Museum. Its interiors were intricately decorated in the Russian Revival style by such artists as Viktor Vasnetsov, Henrik Semiradsky, and Ivan Aivazovsky. During the Soviet period the murals were proclaimed gaudy and were plastered over. The museum went through a painstaking restoration of its original appearance between 1986 and 1997.
