The glossy, highly decorated catalog accompanies "Museum of Russian Fame, Emperors and the Armory" exhibition, and is the first book devoted to its history. Color photos of the exhibits from Kremlin collections are followed by articles, describing the most vivid events in their chronicle under each of 8 monarchs. A number of illustrations and essays are devoted to the history of the monarch's portraits in the Armory. The concluding articles deal with the safekeeping of Russia's royal valuables and the artistic collections of the imperial palaces during WWI.
