The HermitageThe Hermitage is possibly the world’s greatest art museum. We spent 2 hours here, seeing the state rooms and a quick swish through the Renainnasance and Impressionist collections. We only scratched the surface – if you appreciate art of all periods, this is definitely a place that you could spend all day in. Although busy, it seemed to swallow up most of the crowds (at least, compared to some other Russian destinations).
The back door!
It's not just paintings at the Hermitage ...
... but, just as an example, that's a Canaletto buried in the middle of this room. |
