You can come to the Impressionists: a gallery of European and American countries
Description:
To get acquainted with the history of impressionism and post-impressionism, it is not necessary to go on a trip to the museums of France - the birthplace of these trends. It is enough to go to the Art Gallery of Europe and America of the XIX-XX centuries, a special department of the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, where the originals of the best works of legendary masters: Pierre Renoir, Claude Monet, Vincent Van Gogh and others are collected.
It's a cozy chamber mansion. In the past - the left wing of the estate of the princes Golitsyn. Only a few of the largest museums in the world, such as the Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, have collections of French painting of this period, comparable in quality and value to the collection of the Museum.
Also, the Museum hosts regular seasonal exhibitions: Gustav Klimt, Surrealists, Kandinsky or Albert Marche. We will visit them if we wish.
