Temporary exhibitions

T
he exhibition "In Fashionable and Ancient Halls. Everyday Life and Culture of Pushkin's Time" is housed in two halls representing reconstructed interiors of a Russian nobleman's house of the first decade of the 19th century - "study" and "guest room". The authentic pieces of furniture, portraits and paintings on the walls, show-cases with embroideries and tableware, old books, including books edited at Pushkin's time help to perceive the atmosphere of that time and to feel oneself a contemporary of the great Russian poet.
The exhibition is dedicated to 200 years since A.S. Pushkin was born.
