Are the children in the Hermitage bored?

Parents rush to instill in their children a love of art. But how not to discourage the desire to visit museums. No violence. The story and display can be presented in questions and answers. Children like to brag about their erudition. And where to check it as not in the Hermitage.

So what can I do?

Join the story. Unravel the symbols of the attributes of power on the majestic ceremonial portrait of Catherine the Second. Find a portrait of the daughter of Peter, a tall blond beauty to match Petra. Elizabeth was the main fashionista at the court. Girls will be interested to see her outfit and even find echoes of the Jordanian stairs in the ornament of the hem of the dress.

If you want to develop a penchant for drawing in your child, go to the largest canvases. A riot of colors and forms awaits on the canvases of Frans Snyders. And everything is so tasty and realistic and the plot is boring. It is interesting that the ladies at the counter are so actively discussing. Snyders unwittingly makes us complicit in his paintings.

Why not plunge into the familiar children fairy-tale world and not chat about the characters of Greek mythology, because a lot of interesting stories happened with the heroes of the ancient Greek epic. The Hermitage has a rich ancient collection. In the Etruscan hall, count the age of black-lac hydria and compare it with the age of your favorite ceramic kettle grandmother. Astonished at its safety, see together with the parents of the Olympian gods.

The Hermitage is always everything. Do not forget to intrigue children with the largest vase, you can even count its weight in elephants.

Do not postpone your visit to the largest museum, the museum is waiting to develop taste, ingenuity and ingenuity.
