EXHIBITION "HIGHLIGHTS OF RUSSIA'S SCIENTIFIC ENDEAVORS IN AFRICA"

This exhibition is dedicated to the history of Africa’s scientific development: the portraits display a brilliant assemblage of prominent Russian researchers on the African continent – Yegor Kovalevsky, Lev Tsenkovsky, Nicholas Miklouho-Maclay, Wilhelm Junker, and Nikolay Vavilov.
Most of the exhibition is dedicated to a little-known expedition to Ethiopia by Nikolay Gumilyov in 1913: unique historical documentary photographs from the collection of the Peter the Great Museum of Anthropology and Ethnography (the Kunstkamera) in St. Petersburg. The photos depict the nature and everyday life of Africa and convey the spirit of the times, while also retaining their relevance and modernity and emphasizing the peaceful nature of relations between Russia and the countries and peoples of the African continent. Visitors can follow the path through Abyssinia as they discover the aesthetics of African culture, look at ancient lands, and transport themselves more than a century back in time.
The exhibition’s mission is to show the centuries-old traditions of cultural and scientific interaction between Russia and the countries of the African continent.
