The collection of graphic works and watercolors features drawings and watercolors by such prominent Russian artists, as Alexander Briullov, Pyotr Sokolov, Vladimir Hau, Pyotr Balashov, Ilya Repin, Filipp Malyavin, Mstislav Dobuzhinsky. It covers a period of more than 100 years and reflects all significant developments in the Russian graphic art: from the very inception of the 19th century Romanticism to later Realism and Modernism of the first decades of the 20th century. Our collection spans from preparatory sketches to highly accomplished virtuoso watercolor portraits and cityscapes thus affirming graphics as an independent artistic medium.
