專家說明

The present box is comparable with those sent by the Governor of Siberia, Denis Ivanovich Chicherin, to St Petersburg in 1765 with his account of the exploration of the Northern Pacific and the discovery of the Aleutian Islands. One of these boxes is now in the collection of the State Historical Museum, Moscow (E.M. Iukhimenko, ed., Gosudarstvennyi Istoricheskii Musei, Moscow, 2007, p. 129). For further information, see M.M. Postnikova-Loseva, Russkoe Chernevoe Iskusstvo, Moscow, 1972, p. 19; and A. von Solodkoff, Russian Gold and Silverwork, New York, 1981, pp.106-[107].
