“I doubt that lovers of Russian culture will come across a more unusual book this year than The White Birch: a disconcerting blend of academic thesis and personal #travelogue à la Jonathan Dimbleby that transports us from St Petersburg to #Vladivostok via #Abramstevo, Yasnaya Polyana, #Chernobyl and Lake #Baikal.”

'Passionate and #ambitious women rule the House of #Romanov:

Lover, mother, #murderer: meet '#Tsarina, the most powerful woman history ever forgot. In the world's ultimate #Cinderella story and the wild, unbridled Russia of the 18th century, the illiterate and illegitimate serf Marta rises to first ever ruling #Empress of Russia, a realm that morphs from backward nation to superpower.

Dutiful, deceived, dangerous: meet 'The Tsarina’s Daughter'. Elizabeth, the world's loveliest Princess, must fight for her survival after her parents' death. As she is impoverished and isolated only her big, unlikely love-story makes her become who she is; yet claiming what is hers comes at a terrible price...

Fans of Game of Thrones, The Great and Outlander will be captivated by this dark and dramatic historical fiction series by Ellen Alpsten'

“A truly ghastly Larionov nude went tonto, likewise a Sudiekin diptych and a Puni of an orange armchair which sounds as about as exciting as an armchair in orange.”

“Bill and Kat are Maximus. Father to a wonky market, husband to a weak-willed week. Joined as one, forged in fire and all assisted by the machine that goes, ‘ping!’.”

Alexis Feodorovich Lvov was a talented Russian #vi

Alexis Feodorovich Lvov was a talented Russian #violinist, #conductor and #composer. Born in 1798, he joined the Russian army as a young man and enjoyed rapid promotion, becoming adjutant to #Tsar #Nicholas I. In 1833 he was commissioned by the Tsar to compose the #Russian #imperial anthem, and his composition 'God Save the Tsar' was later used by #Tchaikovsky in his #1812 Overture. In #1837 #Lvov succeeded his father as Director of the Imperial Chapel.

Lvov toured internationally as a soloist, playing Mendelssohn's violin #concerto with the composer, and playing recitals with Franz #Liszt. In 1840 Lvoff made a concert tour to Leipzig and Paris. There he visited Vuillaume, commissioned the violin and requested that #Vuillaume decorate the back of the instrument. He was also responsible for the Tsar's instrument collection, and in addition to this violin, he ordered two further instruments from Vuillaume which bear the same coat of arms - a #cello which is a copy of the Batta #Stradivari, and an Octobasse dated 1849, now in the collection of the Gesellschaft der #Musikfreunde in #Vienna.

Kindly brought to our attention by @yuliachaplinapiano. Read more via @ingleshayday and bid until Tuesday♦️
