 MEMORIAL MEDALS FROM THE PIOTROVSKY COLL Hermitage
Memorial Medals from the Collection of Academician Boris Piotrovsky

The State Hermitage 1994.Petersburg

Soft Bound .96 pages .Text in English and Russian.

In June 1993 the Hermitage received Boris Piotrovsky's collection of medals, as a gift from his family. Among other things, the collection, comprising some 200 items of the late 19th—20th centuries, is of considerable interest because of its owner, a representative of St. Petersburg intelligentsia, world famous scholar, and the director of the Hermitage during a quarter of a century.
Boris Borisovich Piotrovsky belonged to those collectors who are able to appreciate the real value of "miniature monuments" which combine the artists' talent and craftsmanship and the memory of glorious events and outstanding personalities. It is due to this interest of him that the Hermitage collection of medals has a number of important items donated, at different times, by its director. The present collection consisting of medals given to Boris Piotrovsky, either as awards or gifts from artists, his friends and colleagues, is largely of personally commemorative nature; for this reason it was decided to preserve it as a single exposition.
Unlike many other collectors, Piotrovsky did not make it his only goal to acquire rarities or objects united with a similar theme or subject matter. One of the most attractive aspects of this collection is its having been formed as a reflection of its owner's many interests. The medal is an
object of a noble and, in a sense, elite art. Himself belonging to the cultural elite of our society, Piotrovsky made his collection of medals an integral part of his universe, together with books, paintings, drawings, and works of applied art.



Памятные медали из собрания академика Б. Б. Пиотровского

Издательства: Славия, Государственный Эрмитаж, 1994 г.
Мягкая обложка, 96 стр.

От издателя
В июне 1993 г. в Эрмитаж была передана коллекция медалей Бориса Борисовича Пиотровского. Почти 200 памятников медальерного искусства конца XIX-XX вв. представляют значительный интерес с разных точек зрения и прежде всего своей принадлежностью Б.Б.Пиотровскому, представителю петербургской интеллигенции, ученому с мировым именем, директору Эрмитажа на протяжении четверти столетия. В этом основная ценность коллекции для Эрмитажа и именно это обстоятельство обусловило принятое дирекцией музея решение хранить ее, как единый комплекс. Б.Б.Пиотровский не принадлежал к числу обычных коллекционеров, озабоченных собиранием материала по какой-либо теме или поисками раритетов. Он ценил очарование миниатюр, в которых труд и талант художников соединен с памятью о выдающихся событиях и личностях. Особая прелесть этого собрания в том, что оно складывалось день за днем, становясь отражением жизни и круга интересов его владельца. Медаль - элитарный памятник в лучшем смысле этого слова; сам Борис Борисович был представителем культурной элиты и коллекция медалей органично вошла в окружавший его предметный мир наряду с книгами, произведениями живописи, графики, прикладного искусства.

Bright & Pretty Hot Pink.
Color: Pitaya Red, Color: Pitaya Red
Very pretty and bright. It’s thick and great quality. Strong grip and doesn’t come off easily. Easy to clean when it gets dirty. It also has a nice backing. I prefer the transparent bright pink backing than the clear version. I love the strong magnetic for when I position it upwards. It can be positioned downwards too.

Very protective iPad case
Color: 1-Navy Blue
This MoKo iPad case is excellent! It fits perfectly and provides great protection without adding bulk. The navy blue color looks very sleek, and the translucent back shell is a nice touch. It’s super magnetic, with great padding. The smart cover works flawlessly with the auto wake/sleep feature, and the cutouts line up perfectly for Touch ID. Lightweight, durable, and a fantastic value!

Perfect, it fits like a glove.
Color: 1-Navy Blue
I really liked the sleeve, the navy blue color looks very elegant and the material feels resistant but soft to the touch. What I like the most is that the back is translucent, so you still see the design of the tablet. It works great for watching videos because it stands firm when folding it, and turning off the screen alone when closing it is very practical. Because of the price it has, the quality is excellent.

Great Protective Case for My Mother’s iPad
Color: 2-Watermelon Red, Color: 2-Watermelon Red
I bought this case along with my mother’s new iPad, and it was the perfect choice. The watermelon red color looks beautiful with the pink iPad and gives it a very clean and stylish look. The case feels sturdy without adding too much weight, which makes it comfortable for her to carry around and use every day. The stand feature works really well for watching videos, reading, and video calls. I also like that the case supports the auto wake and sleep function, which makes the iPad feel even more convenient and easy to use. The cutouts fit perfectly, and Touch ID still works without any issues. The translucent back is a nice touch because it still lets the iPad color show through while keeping it protected from scratches and bumps. Overall, this case exceeded expectations and makes a great addition for anyone wanting both protection and style for their iPad.
