Giorgi Kalandia, the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of Zugdidi Dadiani Palaces, dedicated a post to the appearance of the Dadiani Palace Treasures on the platform.
"About four months ago, I was appointed as the Chairperson of the Board of Trustees of Zugdidi Dadiani Palaces. Together with the creative team of the Palace, we aimed to transform this monument of unique national importance into a new museum and popularize its treasures. Despite the bad period, we did not stop and did the impossible! The world's largest cultural institute of Google has dedicated its platform to Dadiani Palaces! Zugdidi is the second Georgian museum after the Palace of Art, the collection of which was exhibited in front of a multimillion world audience. The "Treasures of the Dadiani Palaces" is the name of the exhibition, which was uploaded at 1 am last night. This process in New York was coordinated by our representative Mari Kharaishvili, for which I would like to thank her, especially. The exhibition was prepared by Mariam Kikvadze, an employee of the Palace of Arts, based on the work and text of Lili Beraia. This exhibition has a double meaning: first to introduce the rich past of our country and at the same time show the world the historical foundations of our territorial unity. That is why the visitor will see here the most precious gold icons of Ilori, Mokvi from Abkhazia, decorated with Georgian inscriptions and the names of Georgian historical figures. Only here, only thanks to Google technologies, you can browse to the smallest detail, the treasure of Samegrelo, which was so magnificently exhibited for the first time to amaze the whole world! I congratulate myself, the staff of the Palace of Art and Zugdidi Palaces!" Giorgi Kalandia wrote on Facebook.
