The Amber Room: The Fate of the World's Greatest Lost Treasure. Янтарная комната: судьба величайшего потерянного сокровища мира (Catherine Scott-Clark, Adrian Levy) ; Walker &Company

The history of art has produced few works as ambitious and as valuable as the Amber Room. Famous throughout Europe as "the eighth wonder of the world, " its vast and intricately worked amber panels were sent in 1717 by Frederick I of Prussia as a gift to Peter the Great of Russia. Erected some years later, they quickly became a symbol of Russia's imperial might.
