With a profound and poetic Russian soul, Faberge’s works of art, like the stories they tell, continue to exert a powerful fascination as hypnotic today as it ever was. As with all Faberge’s eggs, which were archiving the most important events in Russia and in the royal family, this one aims to archive one of the most astonishing events in human history, the first human space flight. This miniature world aims to encapsulate and express architectonically what people felt when they found out that man had entered the unknown.
