Gorky

Visiting "Gorky House", i.e. the Ryabushinsky Mansion, an impressive Art Nouveau creation in Moscow, which served as the home of Alexei Maximovich Peshkov (aka Maxim Gorky) from 1931 to 1936 - however, after December 1934, it served as his prison, as he was placed under unannounced house arrest.
