Peter the Great has not gone down in history as a great art lover. On the contrary, many of his hosts during his trip through Western Europe complained that he and his retinue used the paintings on the walls for target practice. As to religion, the Russian Orthodox church was already rich and well-established at the time. His major contribution to religion probably was sending his first wife to a convent so he could marry the second.
