| De la Rus’ de Kiev à la Russie de Pierre Le Grand |
 |
|
|
|
As part of France’s “Year of Russia” celebrations, the Louvre hosts a major exhibition tracing the history of Russia, from its Christianization in the late 10th century to the reign of Peter the Great, in the first quarter of the 18th century.

 |
|
The exhibition offers a panoramic view of the foundation of Russian civilization, by going back to explore the origins of the nation and thus spanning almost one thousand years of history. This is an exceptional chance to see over 400 works from collections very rarely open to the public because of their fragility.
