Focusing on the Hermitage Museum's rich history, the book highlights the influential roles of its recent directors, father and son Boris and Mikhail Piotrovsky. Boris, who directed during the Cold War, ensured the museum's resilience amid political turmoil, while Mikhail has continued this legacy since 1992, enhancing the institution's global prominence. This beautifully illustrated tribute not only celebrates their leadership but also underscores the Hermitage as a vital emblem of Russian cultural heritage and contemporary artistic significance.
