Treasury! First section: open-mindedness Masterpieces from the Hermitage The first part of the exhibition, in the main gallery, The exhibition Treasury! will be a celebration of art will present visitors with paired works of art from throughout history. Over 250 works of art – from many different periods and cultures. Chosen for outstanding archaeological finds to top works by their surprising similarities, visual or otherwise, these both great and lesser-known artists and exquisite playful and exciting pairings will reveal similarities examples of the decorative arts – will offer the visitor and differences between cultures and over time that on an amazing 25,000-year journey through time and will encourage visitors to adopt a more open and space. A historical and geographical cross-section attentive attitude. Art is exciting and stimulating, encompassing a host of different cultures, from West offering many new discoveries, even in works that to East, and from Egypt to Siberia. have long been familiar.

However, the exhibition will start with a single object: Art history is not a matter of degrees of authenticity the oldest in the entire Hermitage collection. The or originality; it is about the narratives and meanings ‘Venus of Kostenki’ is a 25,000-year-old fertility that underlie art objects. One of the interesting symbol made of limestone and next of kin to the aspects of the Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg famous, more or less contemporary, Venus of is that it stands literally on the dividing line between Willendorf. East and West. This is evident in its collections, which display stylistic features and reciprocal influences from all directions. The history of art is not unitary. Every culture, every period, even every individual art historian writes a different art history. Sometimes there are what you might call ‘blanks’. And the collection of the Hermitage is particularly well equipped to hold up a mirror to us, enabling us to understand the history of art just that little bit better. That is what makes this exhibition so unique.

The displays will also reveal that the interpretation of a work of art is not set in stone. One man’s ‘Late Gothic’ is another man’s ‘Early Renaissance’. What one historian regards as Byzantine, another may call Eastern Roman. We do well to realise this, so that we can approach art with an open mind and perhaps try to look at it as children do, without preconceptions and with new eyes.

Each room will feature rare objects and outstanding works from all the cultural regions represented in the collections of the Hermitage. The rooms focusing on Western European art, for example, will present not only Rogier van der Weyden’s masterpiece Saint Lucus Painting the Madonna, but fine portraits by Moroni and Van Dyck, a marble bust by Bernini and works by a wide range of major artists like Dürer, Fragonard, Rembrandt, Thorvaldsen and Zurbarán. In the rooms displaying oriental art, exhibits will include early Islamic art from Syria, Iran and Central Asia and a Sogdic wall painting from Penjikent.

There will also be a room devoted to one of the Winter Palace’s most extraordinary interiors: the nineteenth-century Malachite Room. This was once the anteroom to the tsar’s audience chamber, St George’s Hall, and its interior is a reminder of the imperial character of the Romanovs’ Winter Palace – now the most important edifice in the State Hermitage complex. Exhibits will include outstanding examples of the decorative arts, such as the renowned thirteenth-century Processional Cross of St Trudberg (the ‘Freiburg Cross’), while Russian contemporary art will be represented by an installation by Dmitry Prigov (1940–2007).
