A Finely Etched Line, a unique exhibition of 17th century furniture, has opened at the State Pushkin Museum, featuring over 50 items of decorative art from the palaces and estates of the Yusupovs, Sheremetievs, Apraksins and other noble families.
The exhibits are truly one of a kind on loan from the State Pushkin Museum, the Historical Museum, the Ostankino Museum Estate, the Arkhangelskoye Museum Estate, the Kuskovo Museum of Ceramics, the Tri Veka Gallery and the Karisalov family collection from St Petersburg.
A special place is devoted to the furniture that belonged to Russian poet Alexander Pushkin’s close friends. For instance, it features a table with curved legs that a grandfather of Pushkin’s wife Natalya Goncharova had ordered for the parlour.
Art patron Mikhail Karisalov gifted a letter written by Russian writer Ivan Turgenev to Pushkin’s younger daughter, Natalya Merenberg, to the Ivan Turgenev Museum in Ostozhenka Street.
