Beschrijving keerzijde Against a deeply mirrored proof field, a high-relief depiction of the main neoclassical palace building of the Ostankino estate is rendered in fine detail, flanked by its lateral annexes. Below the principal structure, the reflected façade and architectural details are shown shimmering across the smooth surface of the estate pond, evoking a tranquil pastoral scene. To the right foreground, the naturalistic crown of a mature tree rises toward the rim, while at the left in the background the contour silhouette of a five-domed Orthodox church is visible. Along the lower rim, the Cyrillic inscription 'УСАДЬБА ОСТАНКИНО' (The Country Estate Ostankino) identifies the subject.

Aanvullende informatie

Ostankino was built in the 1790s for Count Nikolai Sheremetev, one of the wealthiest men in imperial Russia, whose serf theater at the estate became arguably the most sophisticated private opera venue in Europe. The main palace was constructed almost entirely by serf craftsmen trained specifically for the project — carpenters, gilders, painters — a fact that made the building both a showcase of imperial ambition and an uncomfortable monument to the system that produced it.

The estate passed to the Soviet state after 1917 and suffered considerable interior damage during the twentieth century. Restoration efforts have been ongoing and contentious for decades.
