Britannia & Muscovy : English silver at the court of the Tsars

"This illustrated book presents objects from the exceptional collection of English silver in the Moscow Kremlin Museums, where one of the world's greatest surviving groups of English sixteenth- and seventeenth- century silver is housed. Much of the silver from this period was melted down during the English Civil War, making the pieces at the Kremlin exceedingly rare and historically important."--BOOK JACKET
