#KidsSpeak 🇷🇺 This is #RussiaDay energy. #Omsk, Siberia - Museum of Fine Arts. A young ballerina transforms the entire space into a living expression of Russian culture in motion - and for a moment, Russia feels like it’s dancing through time. #VisitRussia

👦👧 #OTD in 1936, Russia’s oldest animation studio – #Soyuzmultfilm – came into being. Over 90 years, it has created 2,943 animated films – many became timeless classics in the post-Soviet countries. Yet remain largely unknown in the West. 🦔 Start with Hedgehog in the Fog.

🚂 #OTD 95 years ago, the new #RedArrow train made its first journey from Leningrad to Moscow. 650 km in 8 hours – back then, it felt astonishing. 🚄 The legendary train still runs today, though modern Sapsan trains now cover #StPetersburg–#Moscow in just 3 hours 45 minutes.

🎨 Meet Ivan #Kramskoi – a virtuoso of Russian portraiture – born #OTD in 1837 From the haunting Christ in the Desert to the enigmatic Unknown Woman, Kramskoi turned the canvas into a mirror of the Russian soul. 🖌 He died in 1887 as a true artist – brush in hand, at the easel.

🏎 #OTD in 1909, Russia’s first mass produced car – the Russo-Balt C24 – hit the roads of the Russian Empire. A 4.5-litre engine, a whooping 30 hp & top speed of 70 km/h: impressive for its time, reliable & ready for Russian roads. 🛞 No drifting, though... YET

😻 June 8 marks the unofficial Day of #StPetersburg Cats. The feline sentinels are part of the soul & charm of Russia’s northern capital. 🫡 During #WWII, they helped save besieged #Leningrad from rodents. Today, 70 whiskered employees protect the @hermitage_eng !
