Czar Peter I, who more commonly known as Peter the Great, was a key figure in Russian history known for reforming the country's political, economic, cultural and social life.
The progress achieved during his reign was vividly reflected in court life, for example in the kinds of dishes he enjoyed, and the kind of tableware used at his banquets. A silver pan dating to the late 17th century at the Moscow Kremlin Museums bears his name.
