Marauding soldiers from Napoleon’s army. The survivor of a terrorist plot. Evidence from an emperor’s murder. Military regalia spirited away from an imperial palace. A discerning customs official saving artifacts from destruction.
All these and more play a role in the gripping tales of objects collected at the Russian History Museum. Join Michael Perekrestov, our Executive Director, for the inaugural presentation in our Second Saturdays lecture series.
Michael will serve as your guide on a richly illustrated journey filled with intriguing characters, unexpected plot twists, and poignant stories.
