After four years of deliberation, it has been announced that Barcelona will move forward with plans for a Hermitage museum of its own. Slated to open in 2019, the institution will be designed by the architect  Íñigo Amézola from the Spanish firm, Ricardo Bofill, Taller de Arquitectura. The museum will exhibit works from Russia’s illustrious Hermitage Museum. The project is expected to cost upward of $47 million to realize.
