Grimaldi Forum Monaco – Cultural Center
Links to a future exhibit in Monaco.
"Moscow : Splendours of the Romanovs"
The Grimaldi Forum will present an exhibition focused on Mother Russia during the Romanov era in its 4000m Espace Ravel. This is being curated by Brigitte de Montclos, curator-in-chief of heritage who also curated the Grimaldi Forum's 2004 headline exhibition Imperial Saint Petersburg, from Peter the Great to Catherine II, which was seen by 63,000 people.
The exhibition will look at the reign of the last dynasty of Tsars, the Romanovs who ruled Russia for three centuries, with particular emphasis on Russian art from the second half of the 18th century to the early 20th century.
The most important exhibits illustrating the reigns of Paul I to Nicholas II will come essentially from Moscow's Historical Museum. They will highlight the magnificence of the court during that era as well as the international influence of Moscow, which hosted several All-Russian exhibitions including in 1882, before the future capital became a hub of Modern Art and Constructivism in the first years of the 20th century.
The exhibition Moscow: Splendours of the Romanovs will form a perfect introduction to the Principality's celebrations marking the centenary of Diaghilev's founding of the Ballets Russes, whose magic permeated Monte-Carlo early last century.
From 11 july to 13 september 2009

I can thoroughly recommend this exhibition. There's a link below to give you some idea of the wonderful exhibits. There's also a beautiful catalogue to accompany the exhibition in several languages - pricey but worth it. I think it is also available on Amazon.

A videoreport from Euronews on the Romanov exhibition
Euronews
Has anyone else visited the exhibition? What did you think of it? I thought it was fabulous - particularly the way the items were displayed, there's a tremendous variety of items on display. I loved the Coronation room, the wonderful jewels & of course the Faberge items.
