One of the main cultural events in Moscow this fall is the exhibition “Other Shores. Russian art in New York. 1924” at .
⠀
The project is dedicated to a grandiose exhibition of the beginning of the last century: painting, graphics, sculpture, porcelain were presented in the halls of the Grand Central Palace in Manhattan in 1924.
The exhibition was organized by the artists themselves, among its organizers were Igor Grabar, Konstantin Somov and Sergey Vinogradov.

Almost a century after the opening of the exhibition in New York, museum workers have restored the list of exhibits and found them all over the world! This is definitely a huge job. Now we can appreciate the scale of the plan of the organizers of the exhibition and admire the works of art!👏🏻

It’s 200th anniversary of the birth of Dostoevsky! What his books do you know?
⠀
Dostoevsky is considered one of the main Russian writers. His books are still being filmed and studied in schools and universities.
⠀
We love his work for a unique picture of Russia, strong characters of heroes and philosophical plots.
If you haven’t read Crime and Punishment, then you do not know Russian literature!🙌🏻

The tradition of going to the bathhouse ("Banya") is part of the cultural code of a person from Russia. Even one of the favorite New Year's films in Russia "The Irony of Fate" begins with a trip to the Banya!
⠀
The history of Banya goes back to Ancient Russia and is always an important ritual.
⠀
If you think that we are talking about saunas and light steam, then immediately leave this thought! A real Russian Banya is strong steam, birch brooms with which they hit you on the back and jump into a snowdrift right from the steam room!
⠀
The most famous baths in Moscow are, of course, Sandunovskiye Bani (or simply Sanduny). Fyodor Chaliapin raised the status of the Sanduns to an incredibly high level. The famous opera singer sang there! The fans, having learned about this, wanted to get to such a "concert"😅
⠀
And it's also very beautiful interior in Sanduny! While you wash, you will be surrounded by painted ceilings, luxurious pools and mosaics😍

This is rarely seen in Russia - a baroque temple seems to be from a fairy tale. Nevertheless, this place is located near Moscow!
⠀
📍The Church of the Sign of the Most Holy Mother of God in Dubrovitsy is a real masterpiece of architecture.
⠀
The church was built in 1704 of white stone on the high bank of the cape formed by the confluence of the Desna and Pakhra rivers. It is a stunningly beautiful place and the church makes an incredible impression in the landscape.
⠀
The church is extremely atypical for the Orthodox style. The building is richly decorated with high relief compositions and carved baroque details. Definitely it’s the must visit place for all architecture lovers!😍
