If only to see with your own eyes the paintings “Girl with Peaches”, “The Rooks Have Arrived”, “The Appearance of Christ to the People”, “Morning in a Pine Forest” and many other works of Russian fine art, familiar even to all people far from painting from their candy wrappers and internet memes.

The painting was painted in 1871 under the impression of military operations in Turkestan, which amazed eyewitnesses with their cruelty. Initially, the canvas was called “The Triumph of Tamerlane,” whose troops left behind such pyramids of skulls. According to history, one day the women of Baghdad and Damascus turned to Tamerlane, complaining about their husbands, mired in sins and debauchery. Then the cruel commander ordered each soldier from his 200,000-strong army to bring the severed head of their depraved husbands. After the order was carried out, 7 pyramids of heads were laid out.

“Unequal marriage” Vasily Pukirev

The painting depicts the wedding process in the Orthodox Church. A young bride without a dowry marries an old official against her will. According to one version, the picture shows a love drama of the artist himself. The prototype in the image of the bride is the failed bride of Vasily Pukirev. And in the image of the best man, depicted at the edge of the picture behind the bride, with his hands folded on his chest, is the artist himself.

"Boyaryna Morozova" Vasily Surikov

Giant in size (304 by 586 cm) painting by Vasily Surikov depicts a scene from the history of the church schism in the 17th century. The painting is dedicated to Feodosia Prokopievna Morozova, an associate of the spiritual leader of the supporters of the old faith, Archpriest Avvakum. Around 1670 she secretly became a nun, in 1671 she was arrested and in 1673 she was sent to the Pafnutiev-Borovsky Monastery, where she was starved to death in an earthen prison.

The painting depicts an episode when noblewoman Morozova is transported around Moscow to the place of imprisonment. Next to Morozova is her sister Evdokia Urusova, who shared the fate of the schismatic; in the depths is a wanderer, in whose face one can read the features of an artist.

“We didn’t expect” Ilya Repin

The second painting, painted between 1884 and 1888, depicts the unexpected return home of a political exile. The boy and the woman at the piano (apparently his wife) are happy, the girl looks wary, the maid looks incredulously, and deep emotional shock is felt in the hunched figure of the mother in the foreground.

Currently, both paintings are part of the Tretyakov Gallery collection.

"Trinity" Andrey Rublev

The Tretyakov Gallery has a rich collection of ancient Russian painting from the 11th to 17th centuries, including works by Dionysius, Simon Ushakov and Andrei Rublev. In room 60 of the gallery hangs one of the most famous and celebrated icons in the world - “The Trinity”, painted by Andrei Rublev in the first quarter of the 15th century. Three angels gathered around the table on which the sacrificial cup stood for a quiet, unhurried conversation.

“The Trinity” is stored in the hall of ancient Russian painting at the Tretyakov Gallery, in a special glass cabinet in which constant humidity and temperature are maintained, and which protects the icon from any external influences.

“Unknown” Ivan Kramskoy

The location of the film is beyond doubt - it is Nevsky Prospekt in St. Petersburg, Anichkov Bridge. But the image of a woman still remains a mystery to the artist. Kramskoy left no mention of an unknown person either in his letters or in his diaries. Critics connected this image with Anna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy, with Nastasya Filippovna by Fyodor Dostoevsky, and the names of famous ladies of the world were named. There is also a version that the painting depicts the artist’s daughter, Sofia Ivanovna Kramskaya.

In Soviet times, Kramskoy’s “Unknown” became almost a Russian Sistine Madonna - an ideal of unearthly beauty and spirituality. And it hung in every decent Soviet house.

"Bogatyrs" Viktor Vasnetsov

Vasnetsov painted this picture for almost twenty years. On April 23, 1898, it was completed and was soon purchased by P. M. Tretyakov for his gallery.

In epics, Dobrynya is always young, like Alyosha, but for some reason Vasnetsov portrayed him as a mature man with a luxurious beard. Some researchers believe that Dobrynya’s facial features resemble the artist himself. The prototype for Ilya Muromets was the peasant of the Vladimir province Ivan Petrov, whom Vasnetsov had previously captured in one of his sketches.

The State Tretyakov Gallery is one of the largest museums in the world. Her popularity is almost legendary. To see its treasures, hundreds of thousands of people come every year to the quiet Lavrushinsky Lane, which is located in one of the oldest districts of Moscow, Zamoskvorechye.

The State Tretyakov Gallery is a national museum of Russian fine art of the 10th - 20th centuries. It is located in Moscow and bears the name of its founder, Moscow merchant and textile manufacturer Pavel Mikhailovich Tretyakov.

The State Tretyakov Gallery is a treasury of national fine art, storing masterpieces created over more than a thousand years. By decree of the President of the Russian Federation, the gallery is classified as one of the most valuable cultural objects of our Motherland.

The Tretyakov Gallery's collection is dedicated exclusively to national Russian art, to those artists who contributed to the history of Russian art or who were closely associated with it. This is how the P.M. gallery was conceived. Tretyakov (1832-1898), this is how it has been preserved to this day.

Since 1893 - Moscow City Art Gallery named after Pavel Mikhailovich and Sergei Mikhailovich Tretyakov, since 1918 - State Tretyakov Gallery, since 1986 - All-Union Museum Association "State Tretyakov Gallery", since 1992 - modern name.

The founder of the gallery was the Moscow merchant Pavel Mikhailovich Tretyakov, for whom collecting works of the national school became his life’s work, and the creation of a public museum with its meaning and justification. Being a passionate collector, in 1872 he began construction of the first halls of the future gallery, adding them to the house in Lavrushinsky Lane, where he himself lived. Later, in 1902, the facade of the house was reconstructed in the Russian style according to the design of the artist V.M. Vasnetsova. In 1892, Tretyakov fulfilled his dream - he transferred the collection he had collected and the collection of his younger brother S.M. Tretyakov as a gift to Moscow. The grand opening of the gallery took place on May 16, 1893.

Initially, the collection included 1287 paintings, 518 drawings and 9 sculptures.

A new building has been laid on the corner of Lavrushinsky Lane and Kadashevskaya Embankment. Now the historical core of the gallery is a beautiful ensemble with its remarkable dominant feature - the slender bell tower of the Church of St. Nicholas, the gallery’s home church.

It is located on two territories separated from each other by several city blocks. This makes it possible to present in one museum in the best works the entire history of Russian art from the most ancient period to the work of our contemporary artists. In addition, the Tretyakov Gallery has memorial art museums in its structure: the apartment museum of Ap.M. Vasnetsov, house-museum of V.M. Vasnetsov, museum-workshop A.S. Golubkina, museum-apartment of P.D. Korina, house-museum of N.S. Goncharova and M.F. Larionova
