Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Large quarto -- 240 X 330 mm. "First published in 1987 by Aurora Art Publishers, Leningrad / This edition published in 1990 by Portland House. . . ." Small red dot to top page edges; likely a remainder mark. Director General Piotrovsky mentions parts of the collection being brought back from safe storage in the Urals after the Russians broke the German siege of Leningrad in 1944, though curiously there's no mention of any loot being brought EAST from Germany in 1945. (Schliemann's gold from Troy went to the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, of course.) Irina Novosselskaya does acknowledge that "A significant enlargement of the Hermitage's stocks took place after the October Revolution of 1917 with the transfer to the museum of nationalized" (stolen) "collections of paintings, graphics, and applied arts" from various other palaces and museums, including "the Stieglitz School of Art and Industrial Design." Examples shown here of the Leningrad/St. Petersburg museum's holdings of paintings by Da Vinci, Rembrandt van Rijn, Raphael, Titian, Caravaggio, Frans Hals, Rubens, Van Dyck, Gainsborough, Monet, Renoir, Cezanne, Van Gogh, Picasso, Matisse, etc., plus prehistoric archaeological finds, 17th and 18th Century coins and medals, and so on. 392 pp., reduced from $30.…
