Thank you for a ray of beauty in the territory of the war. I wanted to visit this city for two years of my trips, but... sometimes a crocodile is not caught, sometimes a coconut does not grow. And this time it was 30-40 minutes, I was worried if I would have time with at least one eye. If it's cursory, it's enough for familiarization. But it will leave an aftertaste with an indispensable desire to return. I'll start with the threshold, a pleasant old building (although perhaps not or rebuilt) similar to an outhouse of German or similar construction and real "museum" doors. A very pleasant woman at the lobby counter, just like the hostess of the house greets the guests. There is a garber hanger and closed storage boxes. The affordable ticket prices are pleasantly surprising. Next, you will be greeted by a gray-haired curator of the halls, almost the same as in the Russian or Pushkin Museum - it feels like she is just moving through time and space. The halls are small, but quite informative. It's a shame that Western European porcelain and Chinese are represented, but our IFZ is missing - and it's beautiful, no worse than a foreign one. Are there really no exhibits?.. But I'm already acting up. After the porcelain hall, I fall into my favorite Renaissance and 17th century Italian paintings. But as it turned out, my flesh was a little further away. There are works by famous Russian artists, even my favorites Shishkin and Tropinin, but perhaps I was overfed by them in the capital's museums and these works didn't really catch on. But the neighboring paintings took their breath away and tears welled up, it seems their place in the Russian Museum or the Tretyakov Gallery among priceless masterpieces. And they're here, in a little-known frontline town. So I discovered a few new names that I hadn't even heard of before. Of the marble sculptures (there are few of them), the Girl with the Orange was impressed - I am awed by such a work plan - how thin lace or a weightless veil can be cut out of stone. A beautiful Rubens blonde (apparently a tour guide) I had such a "delicious" conversation with a visitor that I was once again convinced that enthusiastic people are so beautiful. I hope there will be more time next time and I will be happy to hear about the authors, how these works ended up here and, in general, about the history of the museum itself. It turns out that there is also a hall of icons (unexpectedly! nice to meet you) - but unfortunately, it wasn't working that day. So I will look forward to the next meeting. And I wish the museum and its inhabitants prosperity and replenishment of the collection!

I would like to express my deep gratitude to Victoria's guide. It was very interesting to listen. A wonderful museum, lots of exhibits. I didn't even know that he was in Lugansk, my friend told me and we immediately decided to go. It was the best decision.
