May 1945. Peace. Life. Love

Russia together with the whole world celebrates the day when the most terrible war in history was over. To specially mark it the masters of calligraphy from all over the world have sent us their inspired art works. These works effuse a lot of respect and care. They carry the memories of what our fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers had to face and endure. They bring the dreams of life and love of the beautiful peaceful world ahead.

May their memory live forever. Many happy days to the living.
