A magnificent building, magnificent interiors in the part where world art is located. The interiors are in perfect condition. The halls are equipped with the latest museum technology. The collection of world art is quite meager, eclectic, and there are many copies. Russian art stands out: there is Aivazovsky (not the sea), Shishkin, Korovin, Makovsky, Borovikovsky, Tropinin, Lentulov, Rozanova, Antokolsky, Opekushin, etc. The collection of Azerbaijani paintings is specific, it gives a certain idea of the fine arts of Azerbaijan. In general, it's worth going if you have time and you love painting. Clearly not a masterpiece of Baku.
The National Museum of Art of Azerbaijan. The entrance ticket traditionally costs 10 manats for foreign citizens. Plus, if you want to get to temporary exhibitions, this is another three manats for each exhibition. A wonderful museum. I don't understand why citizens have so much negativity from visiting this museum. In my opinion, everything is very wonderful. You will find what you are looking for. The art of France, Holland, Germany and of course Russian art. There are many works by local Azerbaijani artists. You can talk for a long time about what you like and what you don't like. In my opinion, it's a matter of taste. Just come and enjoy the world's masterpieces of art. The words in the reviews are a useless element, you just need to come and see with your own eyes.
The exposition is small, located on two floors. There are beautiful interiors and a collection of paintings inside. Plus there are 2-3 temporary exhibitions. I recommend taking an audio guide.
The ticket price is 10 manat
In addition to cash, the union pay card is accepted for payment
On Saturday, the museum was open from 11:00 a.m.
