The Catholic Church of St. Catherine is Russia's oldest Catholic church in Russia and to this day remains the only one in the country that had been granted the title of Minor Basilica. The beautiful lines of the building seem to come to life on this beautiful porcelain teacup that certainly does justice to the history of the church, as well as to the history of the Imperial Porcelain Factory, both of which were founded less than 30 years apart.
