RUSSIAN ART AND SCIENCE.
ACADEMY OF FINE ARTS CELEBRATED PAINTERS REPINE AND HIS GREAT PICTURE THE HERMITAGE GALLERY ACADEMY OF SCIENCES MAMMOTHS AND MONSTERS RUSSIAN GRAMMAR.
THE museums of St. Petersburg are remarkable collections for so modern a city. They are the re- sult of princely gifts and unlimited expenditures during the past two centuries. I have written of the Imperial Library and its treasures. Similar treas- ures in the way of pictures, marbles, and bronzes are to be found i...n the galleries and academies of the capital. The Academy of Fine Arts was founded by the Empress Elizabeth in 1757. Catherine II. Gave to this Academy, in 1764, new laws, a large endow- ment, and erected the great palace on the Vassili- Ostroff Quay where Russian art has had its school and home. This Academy fronts the Neva, and is four hundred feet in length. Two large granite sphinxes brought from Egypt stand upon the stone embankment of the river. The lower floor of the immense building is devoted to sculpture, and the galleries to paintings.
