The White Hall was designed by Alexander .Briullov for the wedding of the future Emperor Alexander II in 1841. The white colour scheme of the hall is enhanced by the rich sculptural decor: the ceiling and pilasters are covered with stucco mouldings, the frieze is decorated with figures of playing putti. In the central part of the hall, over the mouldeddesigns representing armory, there are bas-reliefs depicting figures of ancient Roman gods. The columns with magnificent Corinthian capitals are surmounted with figures personifying the arts. The paintings by the 18th-century French artist of Huber Robert are in perfect harmony with the interior. The hall houses an exhibition of unique furniture produced by David Roentgen, a famous cabint-maker of the age of Classicism.
