Anna Akhmatova museum at fountain house

Anna Akhmatova Museum in Fountain House presents the exhibition telling us about Saint Petersburg in Anna Akhmatova's Epoch. On display there are paintings, drawings, autographs, memorial things, photos and books from the Museum's collection. In the Fontanny Dom (Fountain House) Anna Akhmatova, an outstanding Russian poet of the 20th century, has lived for 30 years. This house was a character of her poems, became for the poet a personification of Saint Petersburg and the pre-revolutionary history of Russia. In the flat in the Fontanny Dom Anna Akhmatova wrote lots of her most famous poems. Many of them were not "written" in the full sense of this word: being afraid of repressions Akhmatova didn't keep manuscripts but memorized them and entrusted her closest friends to learn them by heart. Thus "Requiem" and "Poem without a Hero", poems that turned into the symphony about the fate of her generation, have been preserved.
