Vera Grishina recently toured St. Petersburg, Russia to present her newest book "His Imperial Majesty's Page Corps".
The city was founded in 1703 by Peter the Great as "a window to Europe ", and it was the capitol for a little over two centuries (1712-1918).
Today the Hermitage has one of the most unique collections of works of art, over three million items, reflecting the development of world culture and art from the Stone Age to the 21st century.
