The Tomsk Regional Art Museum is located in a three-story stone building — a former merchant’s mansion built in 1902–1903 by Siberian architect Konstantin Lygin.
The museum houses more than 15 thousand exhibits: paintings and graphic works by Old Russian, Russian and Western European masters, sculptures, icons, costumes and dishes from different centuries. The Tomsk Museum displays the largest in Siberia collection of works by local artists of the 19th — early 20th century.
The Tomsk Museum includes the Museum of Wooden Architecture, which is located in the mansion of architect Andrey Kryachkov, and two branches — the Chainskaya Art Gallery in the village of Podgornoye and the Museum of Art of the Peoples of the North in the village of Kargasok, whose holdings were formed on the basis of Ivan Martemyanov’s ethnographic collection.
