SUMMARY:[:en]From Furs to Fabergé: Gifts\, Diplomacy and British-Russian Artistic Relations by Dr Louise Hardiman[:ru]От мехов до Фаберже: подарки\, дипломатия и британо-российские художественные отношения.[:]
DESCRIPTION:Courtly Gifts and Cultural Diplomacy: Art\, Material Culture and British-Russian Relations\, 2023  \nSince the escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian war in 2022\, artistic and cultural relations between Russia and Britain have entered a difficult phase. However\, when the longer historical picture is considered\, there are countless examples of visual culture that can illustrate the presence of a flourishing British-Russian cultural dialogue. One fascinating aspect of this history is that of gift giving and cultural diplomacy between the Russian and British monarchies. In 2018-2019\, Louise Hardiman worked with Royal Collection Trust and others to organise an academic conference accompanying the groundbreaking exhibition\, “Russia\, Royalty and the Romanovs” at The Queen’s Gallery\, Buckingham Palace. Building on this important project\, she decided to edit a collection of articles on the topic. In this lecture\, Hardiman will discuss the book “Courtly Gifts and Cultural Diplomacy: Art\, Material Culture and British-Russian Relations”\, which was published by Brill Schöningh in spring 2023. Covering topics from ambassadorial portraits to gifts of exotic plants\, to objects of Fabergé\, the book presents a richly illustrated survey of the topic through essays from twelve experts drawn from academia\, Royal Collection Trust\, and the private sector. \nThe arrival of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh at Windsor\, 7 March 1874 signed and dated 1874.
