It was a setting of the Lord's Prayer - and suddenly it all made sense. Once they had finished, I had to find out what the music was that they had been singing, so in my very (very) limited Russian I asked the men. A small crowd gathered, and in the midst of this huge museum, it was a very special moment. Beautifully simple music, I decided to follow the sound, to find five (very large) Russian men singing this music.

The sounds of Russian Choral music, suddenly and quite unexpectedly, began to fill the halls. It was at this point, as I'm looking at this statue, that I begin to hear this amazing sound. In the midst of this hectic tour, and hectic summer, it was a real moment of stillness and reflection. It's a very Russian piece, but the emotion that is reflected through the way that Jesus is held here by an almighty father. This beautiful little statue, of our Heavenly Father holding his one son as he lays dying, really spoke to me. I retraced my steps and eventually found this statue. The Hermitage is gigantic, so realistically this was a little like looking for a needle in a haystack. Right at the end of the tour, we had 20 minutes to ourselves, and so I decided I needed to go back and find this strange little statue, not one of particular fame or note. As we were being rushed through the tour, I noticed a very small statue which I found oddly stunning, but we were ushered quickly on through more and more of the museum. Whilst we were there we visited the Hermitage Museum, and we were able to have a look at just a selection of the thousands of incredible artworks that they have on display there.
