Galereya iskusstva stran Yevropy i Ameriki XIX-XX vekov, Art museum in Khamovniki, Russia
The Gallery of European and American Art is a museum in Khamovniki displaying paintings from European and American artists spanning the 1800s and 1900s. The collection occupies the left wing of a historic estate building and includes works by recognized painters like Monet and Van Gogh.
The museum opened in 2006 within the left wing of a former estate that was built between the 1600s and 1800s by historical architects. The site brings together centuries of architectural change with its current role as an art museum.
The collection reflects how early 1900s Moscow collectors shaped taste and access to European art in Russia. These assembled paintings show what wealthy patrons valued and chose to preserve for public view.
The museum offers guided tours and workshops that help visitors understand European and American art movements and techniques. These programs are designed for different age groups and allow exploration of the collection in an organized way.
The building retains original stone gates carved with the Golitsyn family crest at its entrance. These architectural details link the art collection to the social story of a Moscow noble family.
