The art of empire can be regarded by right as the most splendid epoch in Russian culture. The architectural complexes of Petersburg, palace interiors of Northern Palmyra suburbs and Moscow manors attract by the charm of the empire style they are accomplished in. This album presents the first attempt to consider the theme from the point of view of the contemporary arts studies. It reflects all the variety of the empire style in architecture, sculpture, decorative painting, interiors, furniture and bronze, chinaware and glassware, costumes and fabrics.
