Moscow: Muzei drevnerusskogo iskusstva im. Rubleva, 2018. Sewn pb. This catalogue of an exhibition at the Andrei Rublev Museum of Medieval Art and Culture illustrates a healthy phenomenon in exhibiting and publishing art in Russia: state museums are collaborating with private collectors, which makes their collections accessible to those who can visit the museums and to researchers who see the catalogue. The 120 seals published here have historical interest for the portrait minted on the obverse, usually of political and church figures — and aesthetic interest for the religious imagery conventionally shown on the reverse. 67 p., approx. 200 color illus., Rus. with title page and summary in ENGLISH. Item #3096
ISBN: 9785906538116
