The Hermitage Rooms at Somerset House
The Hermitage rooms at Somerset House offer visitors an
introduction to Russias premier museum, The State Hermitage in St
Petersburg, one of the four greatest museums in the world. The
sumptuous collection is housed in the imperial Winter Palace, home
of the tsars until the Revolution. Only 5 per cent of its 3 million
objects can be displayed in the 10 kilometres of lavishly appointed
galleries. Treasures unfamiliar to the public will regularly be shown in London.
