House of Anna Golubkina in Zaraisk, Sculptor residence museum in Zaraisk, Russia.
The House of Anna Golubkina is a museum in a traditional Russian wooden building in Zaraysk that preserves original furnishings, personal items, and sculptures. The rooms show how the artist lived and worked between her living quarters and creative space.
This was Golubkina's last home until her death in 1927, and the museum was established here in 1974. The conversion preserved her living space as a record of her artistic journey and professional accomplishments.
The museum displays Golubkina's sculptures, drawings, and personal letters, showing how Russian art evolved around the turn of the 20th century. The rooms reveal the artistic life of a woman sculptor at a time when few women worked in this demanding medium.
The museum is located at 38 Ulitsa Dzerzhinskaya in Zaraysk and offers guided tours through the artist's living quarters and studio. The rooms are compact, so a calm and careful visit allows you to appreciate the details of her workspace and home.
In the original studio, visitors can see the tools Golubkina used in 1926 to create her final sculpture 'Little Birch'. This preserved workspace gives a rare glimpse into how a working artist of her time actually labored.
