Moscow. Picturesque Russia

The life and spirit of the ancient capital of Russia is captured by almost four hundred illustrations of the album. It opens up a new series of gift publishing devoted to the art and history of our Fatherland. The pages of this book offer numerous types of Moscow on ancient photographs, reproductions of famous and little-known, but always beautiful canvases of Russian and foreign artists. But this is not just an album with the views of the city: besides the panorama of Moscow, artists and photographers also captured the most important events of its history and people who played a decisive role in it.
