FROM JEAN-ANTOINE WATTEAU TO CLAUDE MONET
The exhibition in St Petersburg was held by Christie’s for the first time. This exhibition was the result of close collaboration of Christie’s with the Russian Museum. The exposition was prepared especially for demonstrating in the Northern Capital.
The artworks by the Old Masters, among them there is ‘A Surprise’ by Antoine Watteau (it was considered to be lost), paintings by the leading impressionism and post-impressionism artists were presented in the White Hall of the Marble Palace.
These artworks will be the part of the forthcoming Christie’s summer auction in London. The works are estimated in 40 million dollars.

For the Glory of Russia. Entrepreneurs and Patrons in Russia in the 18th – Early 20th Centuries
6 June—5 August 2024
Merchants, the “third estate”, at that time, were the basis of Russia’s economic power. The Stroganovs, the Demidovs and other entrepreneurs sometimes established entire “empires” with their own settlements, roads and internal regulations. The richest merchants became nobles and patrons of the arts. The exhibition is unique, both in the themes it explores and in the works it presents.
