Latvian Museum of Foreign Art, Art museum in Riga, Latvia
The Latvian Museum of Foreign Art is an art museum in Riga that displays international works spanning several centuries. Its collections include paintings, sculptures, prints, and decorative arts arranged across multiple gallery spaces within the building.
The museum was founded in 1920 and became a key institution for collecting international art in the Baltic region. Its establishment reflected Riga's connection to broader European artistic developments during the early independence period.
The collection reflects how different cultures have approached art across centuries, with works arranged to show connections and contrasts between artistic traditions. Walking through the galleries reveals how artists from different regions developed distinctive visual languages while sometimes addressing shared human themes.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday with extended hours on Friday. It helps to check current opening times in advance, as hours may vary by season.
The building was originally Riga's Stock Exchange before being converted into a museum. This transformation connects the city's commercial heritage with its art collection.
