The art of drawing was the visceral thread for the entire Italian artistic process in the 15th and 16th centuries. The drawing was the laboratory in which the transition to the art of the Modern Era came about; it was what served as the starting point for painting, sculpture and architecture. The creative searches, unexpected insights and main discoveries came about first on a sheet of paper. The print for its part was the guide to new creative ideas, the art of the model pattern. At first an example of new subjects or a visual textbook of anatomy, then a yardstick for style, and finally a sample of a personal manner of working, that is to say of artistic individuality. Gathered together in one setting, the prints and drawings allow us to trace the complex, at times contradictory, yet meaty and vigorous picture of the evolution of Italian art at the time of its greatest flourishing. The exhibition features some 150 works. They include miniatures executed on expensive parchment in the late 14th century and rapid sketches made from life by Mannerist artists, monumental colour woodcuts in the chiaroscuro technique and austere burin engravings, allegories that have still to be figured out and religious images full of pious emotion. On show are the personal creations of Andrea Mantegna, Filippino Lippi. Giulio Romano, Marcantonio Raimondi, Francesco Parmigianino, Baccio Bandinelli, Giovanni Bellini, Paolo Veronese and Jacopo Tintoretto. Many works have been given fresh attributions; several dozen are going on public display for the first time.

The Catherine Garden is located in Pushkin, 25 kilometers south of St. Petersburg, Russia. It is the back garden of the Catherine Palace. It is beautifully laid out, colorful, with green trees and rippling lakes. Strolling in the French garden is an enjoyable and elegant environment.

Peterhof Palace

Peterhof Palace completely amazed me. The scale of the fountains and the beauty of the gardens were unlike anything I&rsquo;d seen before. Wandering through the grounds felt like stepping into history&mdash;elegant, grand, and full of surprises.
