On 15 February 2006 the traditional scholarly readings dedicated to the memory of Academician Boris B. Piotrovsky (1908-1990) took place in the Hermitage Theatre.

Traditionally the readings are a unique form of annual report by staff working in the research departments of the State Hermitage. The papers they present are dedicated to investigations of various issues in the history and art of East and West from neolithic times until the 20th century.
