A small but very well-chosen main exhibition. The amazing collection of works by Yudel Pen is probably the only one so rich in the world.
A memorable selection of modern paintings. I highly recommend it!
An interesting museum located in a beautiful house, the former governor's palace. There are busts of Lenin and Marx at the entrance. Magnificent interiors, wrought-iron stairs, lots of light. We only saw the main exhibition. It's just like in any good museum. I remember the painting by A. I. Korzukhin "Funeral of a dog". Nowhere else, in the whole world, will you find such a plot and content of the painting.
I recommend you to visit, although the prices for tickets and excursions for one person are too high. The attention of the museum's curators to visitors, several exhibitions and there is always something to see. The staff will answer any of your questions. But to find a cloakroom attendant, to wait is as lucky as you are, the museum really has a problem with this. The staircase in this building struck with its splendor. A fully forged openwork staircase from the beginning of the 19th century. I visited the Matisse exhibition and ordered comments (a guide) for my visit. I got answers to all my questions and the attention of the caretakers, who helped me take good photos.
