Default HELP needed: St. Petersburg Hermitage Museum!

I urgently require better photos of this snap tinder lock harquebus and the combined snap tinder and wheel-lock harquebus below, both in the Hermitage Museum St. Petersburg - can anybody out there help me, please??

(Scans and text taken from Tarassuk's book on the Hermitage firearms).


Does anyone have or can make contacts with the staff of the Hermitage Armory?

Any sort of help much welcome!

Michael
