Scientific Library of the Russian Institute of Art History

Endless city. You can discover it and never find an end

Strangers are not allowed except for exhibitions in white hall. Beautiful example of private palace

Good building

Good place.

It was here that Professor Preobrazhensky came home to "Heart of a Dog". Many old interiors are well preserved inside! Wonderful people do their wonderful job here - they study and preserve art! And a very special place in the RIIII is of course the manuscript room ... Old cabinets, yellowed notes and letters, portraits, busts of composers :)) This is perhaps one of the best places in the world! :))
