Museum of Russian Impressionism

The Museum of Russian Impressionism sits in a modern circular building on Leningradsky Avenue with four floors dedicated to Russian artists. The spaces display paintings and sculptures from the Impressionism movement.

The institution opened in 2016 and converted a former industrial building into an exhibition space. The launch marked a renewed focus on Russian artistic traditions that had been long overlooked.

The collection centers on Russian painters like Konstantin Korovin and Valentin Serov, whose works shaped local artistic traditions during this period. These artists reveal how light and color were understood in Russian art.

The museum is accessible daily and offers guided tours in multiple languages. Visitors should plan enough time to explore all floors, especially if they want to examine the works more closely.

The building contains specialized research areas where scientists examine the technical aspects of Russian Impressionist paintings. These spaces allow visitors to understand the painting techniques and materials behind the displayed works.
