The Hermitage Day 2 - Part 1

Back to the Hermitage it was this am to queue at the automated ticket machine for today’s tickets.
Straight off to the General Staff Building which is opposite the square for more amazing art works.... and a Carl Faberge Memorial Exhibition.

After 3.5 hours of Renoir, Picasso, Matisse, Gaugin ( about 6-10 works of each at least) and many, many other artists we left for a spot of lunch- well a pint and some chips.... how v cultured??!!!
Tonight it’s back to the main Hermitage for more of what we missed the other night.Read more
