Museum Thursday

The B & M Theocharakis Foundation for the Fine Arts and Music is currently showing the Great Russian Painters (1920-2010) from the Manege Collection in Saint Petersburg, and Rob and I headed there for Museum Thursday. It was a great exhibition consisting of artwork that portrayed the history of the city from Petrograd to Leningrad and to Saint Petersburg. Below is the work Palace Square (1990) by Roman Muravyev showing the golden domes of St. Isaac's Cathedral. If the show happened to be in Athens to promote Russian Tourism, it definitely worked on us!
