The 2 volume boxed set documenting Pavlovsk Palace arrived this evening. It was a bargain considering the size of the set and the gorgeous color photographs of the exteriors, interiors, park, and collections. This particular set replaces one that I had to give-up when I last moved. But, I had kept the Suzanne Massie book that is probably the best history in English of this magnificent dwelling.

My interest in Pavlovsk derives from the fact that it was last owned and occupied as a country retreat by Grand Duke Konstantin Konstantinovich Romanov about whom I previously posted. He reputedly loved the place and would have been deeply saddened at the way the Nazis literally bombed out so much of the palace's interiors. These were meticulously restored so that one can enjoy them either in person or by means of the volumes above. I doubt that I'll ever make it to Russia. So, this is the next best thing.

Pavlovsk Park, Saint Petersburg

Postcard from Russia. The Pavlovsk Park is the park surrounding the Pavlovsk Palace, an 18th-century Russian Imperial residence built by Tsar Paul I of Russia near Saint Petersburg. After his death, it became the home of his widow, Maria Feodorovna. It is now a state museum and a public park. The stamps:
