EXHIBITIONS

Subsequently, it took shape as a separate section of the exhibition and by 1898 it already included about 1,600 works. This exhibition provides for the first time the opportunity to see an exhibition composed exclusively of drawings collected by P.M. Tretyakov. The exhibition features about 250 works, including portraits, landscapes, genre works, still lifes, sketches of paintings and monumental paintings, executed in a wide variety of graphic techniques. Among the authors of the drawings are V.A. Serov, V.V. Mate, N.N. Gritsenko, V.M. Vasnetsov and others. Photographs of the halls, taken in 1898 by K. Fischer commissioned by P.M. Tretyakov, provide an opportunity to get acquainted with how drawings were exhibited at the end of the 19th century. Tretyakov Gallery , until April.
