bookmark of the week


Popped into London today and visited Somerset House, which has a small number of rooms dedicated to showing off some of the collections from the Hermitage and it also has a shop that sells Russian handicrafts, books on Russia and of course bookmarks. These three bookmarks show a hunting dagger, one of a pair of pistols and a six barrel rifle - just the sort of bookmarks if you are reading some military history or War and Peace.
