    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!
    I'm dying to go to the Hermitage. I've been to the Louvre and the musee d'orsay. I loved both.

    And Rome has, needless to say, some of the greatest art treasures in the world...

    The best Russian painter in my mind:

    Ivan Aivazovsky!








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



    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)

    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:

    Ha, a marinist. I can't imagine too many people fall into that category.

    It is weird, I don't like her... she looks like a pest.

    I prefer Dementieva.

    For men, I admire Khodorkovsky

    Just curious... what does a pest look like?

    Are you serious? Of all the Russian men that ever have existed, you choose an oligarch? Why? Is it because he is being victimized?
