The Azerbaijan National Art Museum’s visitors have taken part in
the wonderful journey through time, Azernews
reports.
A unique and exciting excursion, “Traditions of palace feasts”,
was held in the museum as part of the exhibition “Nesvizh-Heritage
of World Culture”.
The project is organised jointly by the Azerbaijan National Art
Museum and the National Historical and Cultural Museum-Reserve
“Nesvizh,” with the support of the Culture Ministries of Azerbaijan
and Belarus.
The guests of the event plunged into the atmosphere of ancient
Belarusian celebrations. The excursion was conducted by the staff
of the Nesvizh Museum-Reserve, enlivening the story with
interactive elements with the direct participation of the
audience.
The theme of the evening covered fascinating aspects – the
traditions of palace and folk cuisine, the organisation of princely
hunts, ancient Belarusian holidays – especially Kolyada, and, of
course, an integral part of any feast – the art of dance.
This was not just an excursion, but a real cultural journey
through centuries and tastes, where traditions came to life and the
music of bygone times sounded.
Note that the exhibition “Nesvizh-Heritage of World Culture”
consists of 23 tablets with images of the exterior and interior of
the Nesvizh Castle of the 16th-18th centuries, where the
museum-reserve is located, as well as photographs of the exhibition
halls and a video.
Nesvizh Castle is renowned as one of Europe’s most stunning
castles. Its museum-reserve encompasses nearly fifty halls that
serve as a unique space reflecting both ancient and contemporary
Belarusian culture.
The exhibition will last until June 15, 2025.
