The distinctive features of the Russian Empress Catherine the Great were luxury and power. It was Catherine the Great who inspired the creators of the collection, because, in their opinion, she was the greatest representative of luxury and power. A woman who took the reins of power into her own hands and even decided to plot against her husband.

Catherine's reign lasted 34 years, during which she changed Russia, incorporating both political and moral changes. Catalina, or Catherine, was passionate about medicine, education and especially art and culture. The Winter Palace in St. Petersburg, where she lived, is currently the headquarters of the Hermitage. It houses one of the greatest collections of art, which Catherine the Great began to collect herself, adding to it various works purchased during her reign.
