Very sincere and great music!
I'm dying to go to the Hermitage. I've been to the Louvre and the musee d'orsay. I loved both.Quote:
When you go to Russia, you absolutely must go to Tretyakovski gallery (Moskow) and to Russian museum (St. Petersburg), this is such a treat :!: Love these places! :D
And Rome has, needless to say, some of the greatest art treasures in the world...
Pyotr Nikiforovich Zdorovetzki
Maria Sharapova....she's so beautiful.....here in the states, everyone pronounces her last name wrong....

The best Russian painter in my mind:
Ivan Aivazovsky!

And mathematician? Since I am a Controls Engineer it is Aleksandr Mikhailovich Lyapunov of course!

:lol: It is as if he is saying... "What? You do not know that the transition point is an ellipsoid of bifurcation corresponding in this case to a Jacobi ellipsoid of revolution?" (Just look here if u don't believe it)
those paintings are incredible...
They really are. :o
I am glad you like them, seeing them in real life is stunning... Aivaszovsky was a Marinist, which means he only painted sea related pictures... here are some more pictures for your viewing pleasure:
