A sumptuous catalogue of an exhibition in two halves - the first is that of artefacts elucidating the close political and trade ties between England and Russia in the C16th and C17th; the second is a display of the very finest silver gilt flagons, cups and dishes manufactured in England by the greatest of silversmiths during the same period and on temporary loan from the Kremlin Museum.  Each is illustrated in large colour plates with full details of date, maker, design and provenance.   Large format paperback.  198 pages.  Tiny ex libris sticker, otherwise very good condition.   Cat No 3073
