Saint Petersburg in Watercolours and Prints of the 18th and 19th Centuries

by Galina Mirokyubova

Overview

How did the Neva embankments and Nevsky Prospekt look two or three centuries ago? How did the Winter Palace change with time? And what about fashions in the capital founded by Peter the Great? In this elegant and lavishly illustrated book the answers are provided by eye-witnesses — Alexei Zubov, Mikhail Makhayev, Andrei Martynov, Karl Beggrow, Carl Collmann, Vasily Sadovnikov and other artists who with inspiration and affection recorded the appearance, life and atmosphere of the young and beautiful city on the Neva.
