Мир альбомного рисунка

A notable feature of Russian life at the end of the 18th - the first half of the 19th century was home albums, where poets, artists and just friends of the owner left their notes, drawings, watercolors. The book introduces original and hitherto unknown copies of albums kept in the collections of museums in our country. Among the sketches acquainting with the life and situation in Russia of those years, there are many for the first time attributed portraits of remarkable figures of Russian history and culture - heroes of the Patriotic War of 1812, writers, poets, musicians.
For a wide range of readers. About all this and not only in the book The World of Landscape Drawing (A. V. Kornilova)
