At the direction of Catherine II in the first female educational institution, the "girls of the new formation" should have been cultivated in order for educated and cultural graduates, becoming spouses of worthy husbands, to bring to the “perfect person”. The regime in Smolny was like a prison: noble girls lived nine people in the same room, went to bed early and woke up early, were endlessly under the gaze of the overseer, and ate scarcely. Only rich girls could afford to drink tea in the same room with teachers or pay a watchman for an additional fee so that he would carry forbidden sweets from the nearest shop in the boot of the boot. This book tells about all the details of the life of the pupils of Smolny. The memoirs of the famous graduates of the institute united under one cover are the best talked about how the life of Smolyans passed
