The Museum explained in the announcement that each NFT will be issued in two copies, one held by the Hermitage itself and the other going to the buyer.
The metadata of the NFTs will include Hermitage director Mikhail Piotrovsky’s signature, the time of the signing and certification that it was signed in the Hermitage.
In a statement at the time, Piotrovsky said that NFT makes luxury things more available, yet, at the same time, exclusive.
He added that the Hermitage will keep exploring what digitalization can do for the museum. “On these new technologies, we will base our new experiments,” said he.
