Permanent Exhibition
#2
The exhibition of the Art Gallery opened in 1996. It is based on the collection of Counts Uvarov, which was received by the museum in 1918 from their Karacharovsky estate near Murom. Alexey Sergeevich and Praskovya Sergeevna Uvarov are famous Russian scientists, archaeologists and collectors. The exhibition opens with a number of family portraits of the Uvarovs, Razumovskys, and Naryshkins.
Western European art of various schools — Italian, Spanish, French, Dutch and German — is represented by the works of masters Domenico Tiepolo, Lorenzo Quaglio, Eugene Adam, David Teniers and other painters.
The interiors of the gallery are decorated with gilded bronze products in the Empire style of French work of the late XVIII century. Interior bronze ornaments from the Paris workshop of the bronzer, caster and coiner Pierre-Philippe Tomir were widely known.
The interiors of the gallery halls are made up of pieces of furniture of the XVIII–XIX centuries in the styles of Baroque, Rococo, Russian Jacob, Chinoiserie. The showcases contain glassware and crystal of Western and Russian production of the XVIII–XIX centuries.
Russian art is presented in two small halls. K. P. Bryullov’s pencil sketch for his painting “The Last Day of Pompeii” attracts attention. The sketch is close to the final pictorial version of the painting (located in the State Russian Museum).
The creativity of I. I. Shishkin is represented by two graphic works “Forest” and “Herd in the forest”. Works by A. K. Savrasov: watercolor “Swiss Lake” and a small picturesque sketch “Moonlight night”.
The work of V. D. Polenov is represented both by the sketches “On the banks of the Nile”, “The Nile Sleeve”, “Epirus”, and the large canvas “Dreams”.
The decoration of the museum collection is the author’s repetition of the painting by A. E. Arkhipov “Along the Oka River”.
