Abstract

Is devoted to the repainting of 16th century murals in the Hall of the Facets in Moscow Kremlin by the Palekh icon­painters Belousovs which was organised on the occasion of the coronation of Alexander III by Georgy Filimonov, a famous archaeologist. While Alexander III considered the “restored” painting as the important element of the celebrations that were to display the idea of sacrosanctity of tsarist autocracy, Filimonov believed that the paintings of the Hall were to contribute to the development of the truly national art in Russia.
