Memory of Russia: Pushkin House Museum in St. Petersburg mounts “Pushkin’s Last Minutes” exhibition

From February 8 through February 21, 2019 the Institute of Russian Literature Literary Museum (The Pushkin House) of the Russian Academy of Sciences is holding a temporary exhibition “Pushkin’s Last Minutes”, which is timed to poet’s 182nd anniversary of death. It continues the tradition of mini exhibitions staged ahead of Pushkin’s commemorative dates, which was established several years ago. They give visitors a unique chance to discover original documents, which leave the archival repository for a short time.
