It is the second largest art museum in the world. In 2002 it celebrated its 150th year of being open to the public, but was actually founded in 1764 by Catherine The Great. It is, of course, the State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg. An exterior and interior view of the Hermitage Theatre is on the souvenir sheet and a view of the Winter Palace from the Neva River.
