ReplyDeleteBuona giornata
Mosca had such an interesante historia.
DeleteInteresting that the series starts with the youngest son getting only a small piece of land along the Moskva, and that this is how Moscow’s story begins.

Sometimes the biggest stories begin from something very small.
DeleteI knew nothing about Daniil of Moscow, but trying to be the peacemaker in that family must have been an impossible profession. The Russian historical series you bring us always look magnificent, and having Sergey Bezrukov in the cast gives this one another point in its favour. Now let us hope it eventually reaches Spain.
ReplyDeleteA big hug.
P.S. I am completely hooked on the second season of The Serpent Queen. Mamma mia, what a mess in that palace!
Bezrukov is such a great actor, and there is also Yevgeny Romantsov who is another of my fave, Russians have brilliant male actors.
DeleteHave in mind that Serpent Queen takes too much liberties and plays a lot with history for the sake of modern agenda. Catherine truly was a serpent, not such a helpless mommy like in the series, too bad they did not opt to portray her powerful and wicked as she was. Then again, the fact her husband's mistress really did govern her house and even her children, is true, but she avenged herself later on.
Me gustaria verla. Te mando un beso.
ReplyDeleteGracias.
DeleteI love the moody vibe of the stills. Another that we won't get to see, but if it ever does reach us, I'll be sure to check it out.
ReplyDeleteI am currently reading Orlando Figes' massive study NATASHA'S DANCE on the cultural history of Russia, it has like 700 pages or something, so I am currently in this material to my neck.
