Il palazzo di Caterina, noto anche col nome di Grande Palazzo di Carskoe Selo era la residenza estiva degli zar di Russia, eretta in stile rococò e facente parte del complesso architettonico di Carskoe Selo, nella città di Puškin a circa 25 km a sud-est di San Pietroburgo. L'edificio, iniziato ufficialmente nel 1717 su ordine dell'imperatrice russa Caterina I (da cui il nome), venne più volte ricostruito nel corso del XVIII secolo sino a giungere alla forma attuale. Dopo il crollo della monarchia zarista, l'Unione Sovietica aprì il palazzo come museo. Durante la seconda guerra mondiale il palazzo fu gravemente danneggiato. Il suo recupero ha richiesto molti anni e ancora non è terminato. Il palazzo colpisce per la sue lunghe facciate (306 m), in trionfante stile barocco russo tendente ormai al rococò, dipinte in turchese e impreziosite da colonne bianche, tetti aggettanti, stucchi, capitelli e fregi dorati (furono usati 120 kg d'oro) estremamente complessi, possenti atlanti. La sala da ballo, progettata da Rastrelli tra il 1752 e il 1756 con pareti bicolori, e utilizzata in caso di ricevimenti, pranzi importanti o anche balli in maschera, copre un'area di circa 1000 m² ed occupa l'intera ampiezza del palazzo e le finestre sulla facciata orientale guardano sul parco interno al palazzo stesso, mentre quelle ad ovest si affacciano sul piazzale antistante. Al tramonto, 696 lampade venivano accese sui candelieri che si trovano vicino agli specchi. Gigantesco affresco il "Trionfo della Russia" (1755), del Valeriani, sul soffitto.
