Retro Petersburg (photos, lithographs, pictures)
From the very first years of the emergence of St. Petersburg, the beauty of the young city, the majesty of the Neva, the charm of white nights and the endless expanse of the Gulf encouraged artists to capture the changing appearance of one of the most mysterious cities in Russia. Over two hundred years, a huge number of images of Old Petersburg have accumulated - from paintings stored in The Hermitage and the Russian Museum to everyday photographs... Images are not available in older materials.
