Description
An unprecedented tour of the most stunning and architecturally significant palatial homes of
Russia's nobility, many not previously photographed and inaccessible to visitors.This luxurious
presentation takes the reader on a breathtaking tour through the most magnificent mansions in St.
Petersburg, Russia, built by the prerevolutionary aristocracy.Palaces of St. Petersburg reflects the
unparalleled access and meticulous research of the authors, showcasing private residences that
are unsurpassed in their historical importance and artistic grandeur. From the world-renowned
Yusupov Palace, where Count Yusupov, famous for killing Rasputin, carried out his courtly duties,
to the Polovtsov Palace, its unassuming facade concealing one of the most spectacular interiors of
St. Petersburg, these residences have been an integral part of Russian history.This volume gives
readers a glimpse into the interiors of these family homes with their sweeping marble staircases
and grand rooms with elaborate parquet floors, intricate moldings, and mosaic details, enriched
with sculptures and tapestries. All-new photography--as well as archival images showing the
rooms and art collections as they existed in the day--celebrate the enduring beauty and exquisite
restorations of these masterpieces, which reflect a lost way of life.
