While he had contact with the court of William III, he also studied English shipbuilding practice, arranged sailing lessons on the Thames and paid visits to the Woolwich Arsenal, the Royal Observatory and Royal Mint. It was also during this visit that the Russian Orthodox Church was established at the Russian Embassy in London, remaining there until 1917. The four silver niello plaques mounted on the front cover, and possibly the wooden boards, date back to the time of printing. The magnificent recasing in 1904 was made under the supervision of Father Mikhail Derzhavin, possibly for a newly consecrated Church. In recent times this Altar Gospel was present at a Moleben (prayers) service at the Russian Orthodox Church Abroad Cathedral of the Dormition of the Mother of God and the Holy Royal Martyrs in Chiswick, London, for the visiting relic of the Holy Cross from Jerusalem and the 400th anniversary of the founding of the House of Romanov. In attendance were the Grand Duchess Maria Vladimirovna Romanova and her son Grand Duke George Mikhailovich of Russia, the Tsarevitch and heir to the Russian throne. Later that year, in December 2013, this Altar Gospel featured in a Russian Orthodox Divine Liturgy held in Church Slavonic and English at the Orthodox Church, Bentham, Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. The printing date is taken from a translation of the first leaf, this copy possibly lacking a preceding title-page: ‘Printed on the press of the great ruling city of Moscow. By command of the most devout and great sovereign our Tsar and Grand Prince Peter Alexeyevich, autocrat of all the Great Russians, Little Russians [i.e. Ukrainians] and White Russians. … In the year 7207 ...
