Item's Code: XR-911 ABOUT: Very rare and unique, 1891 book by Dr. Radde, about the Caucasus Museum founded by him in Tiflis and its history from 1867 to 1892. The Museum evolved from the Museum of the Caucasian Department of the Russian Imperial Geographic Society, founded on May 10, 1852 and converted into the Caucasian Museum on the initiative of the German explorer Gustav Radde in 1865. After Georgia regained independence from Russia (1918), the museum was renamed into the Museum of Georgia in 1919. Noe Kipiani was the first director of the museum. A bulk of its collection was evacuated by the Government of Georgia to Europe following the Bolshevik takeover of the country in 1921, and was returned to Soviet Georgia through the efforts of the Georgian émigré scholar Ekvtime Takaishvili in 1945. In 1947, the Museum was named after the late Georgian historian Simon Janashia. The Museum suffered significantly during the years of post-Soviet turmoil in Georgia early in the 1990s. It was first damaged in fighting during the military coup in 1991-2 and then part of its collection was destroyed by a fire. In 2004, the Janashia Museum was integrated with other leading Georgian museums under a joint management system of the Georgian National Museum. -------------------------------------------------- В кратком очерке объясняется, какими средствами и в каком духе, в продолжении многих лет происходила работа в интересах музея и науки. К отчету прилагается список путешествий и сочинений Д-ра Г. Радде, директора Кавказского музея и Тифлисской публичной библиотеки. Музей основан 10 мая 1852 года Кавказским департаментом Российского Императорского географического общества и преобразован в Кавказский музей по инициативе немецкого исследователя Густава Радде в 1867 году. После того как Грузия обрела независимость от России (1918), музей был переименован в Музей Грузии в 1919 году. Основная часть его коллекции была эвакуирована правительством Грузии в Европу после большевистского захвата страны в 1921 году и была возвращена Советской Грузии благодаря усилию грузинского эмигрантского ученого Эквтиме Такаишвили в 1945 году. В 1947 году музей был переименован в честь грузинского историка Симона Джанашия. Музей значительно пострадал в годы постсоветского хаоса в начале 1990-х годов. Он был поврежден в ходе военного переворота в 1991—1992 годах, а затем часть его коллекции уничтожил пожар. В конце 2004 года музей искусств Грузии был помещён под единую систему управления с рядом других музеев, образовавших Грузинский национальный музей. Музей занимает несколько зданий в центре Тбилиси, с основной экспозицией, расположенной на проспекте Руставели. Главное здание музея было спроектировано в 1910 году, по проекту архитектора Николая Северова на месте старого, обветшавшего здания. В оформлении постройки использованы элементы средневекового грузинского декора. * (see Terms below)- We operate our business from our 2 locations (main one in Pasadena, CA, USA & the 2nd one in overseas), thus, based on the item's availability and/or buyer's location (country), your purchased item will be shipped from either of our offices/storage.

Radde was born in Danzig, the son of a schoolmaster. He had little formal education, and began a career as an apothecary. He became increasingly interested in natural history, and in 1852 he gave up his career and spent two years in the Crimea with the botanist Christian von Steven, collecting both plants and animals. He made further trips to southern Russia with Johann Friedrich von Brandt and Karl Ernst von Baer. He was botanist and zoologist on the East Siberian Expedition of 1855, led by the astronomer Ludwig Schwarz. In 1864 he eventually settled in Tbilisi. In the same year he explored the region surrounding Mount Elbrus, the highest mountain in the Western Palearctic. As well as collecting many plants he recorded the languages, ballads and customs of the local tribes. He set up a museum (the Caucasus Museum) and library in Tbilisi to exhibit his discoveries. His collecting expeditions included visits along the Black Sea coast and eastwards beyond the Caspian Sea to Askhabad. In 1895 he sailed to India and Japan with the Grand Duke Michael, and two years later he was official naturalist on a visit by members of the Russian imperial family to North Africa. He eventually became a member of the Council of State in Tiblisi. In 1884 he was honoured with the chairmanship of the first International Ornithological Congress in Vienna. He was also an honorary member of the D. O.-G., and a foreign member of the British Ornithologists' Union and the Zoological Society of London. Animals named after him include birds such as Radde's Warbler and Radde's Accentor, and amphibians and reptiles such as the Mongolian toad (Pseudepidalea raddei ) and Radde's mountain viper (Vipera raddei ). -------------------------------------------------- Густа́в Ива́нович Ра́дде (нем.
