Five Hour Hermitage Tour

April 14 2020

For those brave art-lovers out there, who are turning rather loopy staring at their four walls, then this video experience might be for you. Apple have published a rather epic five hour tour of the State Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia. They actually published the video before the lockdown begun, almost in anticipation of what was to follow. There are some rather nice shots of their masterpieces and galleries, including tonnes of Old Master Paintings.

Top tip - If like me you are rather sensitive to annoying soundtracks, mute the video and pick a playlist of your own choice (Scriabin is my pick, for the moment).
