Дом Щукина, Regional cultural heritage mansion in Khamovniki District, Moscow, Russia.
The Shchukin House features a symmetrical classical facade with a triangular pediment and a balcony on the main elevation at Bolshoy Znamensky Lane.
Built in 1740, the mansion changed ownership multiple times before merchant Ivan Shchukin purchased it in 1882 for 160,000 rubles.
Sergei Shchukin transformed the mansion into an art gallery, displaying his collection of French Impressionist paintings, including works by Matisse and Gauguin.
The Ministry of Defense of Russia currently occupies the building, which underwent reconstruction in 2011 to accommodate the minister's reception area.
Henri Matisse personally arranged his paintings in the mansion and created the artwork 'Dance' specifically for the house's collection.
