The exhibition “Hidden Treasures”, dedicated to the 90th anniversary of the Museum of Russian Art, continues in Kiev. The museum’s reserves are full of works of art - more than 12,000 exhibits, most of which have never been exhibited for wide viewing.

The permanent exhibition is only 120 paintings, so the management decided to return to the exhibition halls at least temporarily the most interesting paintings, which have great artistic, historical and educational value. On the contrary, some of the works of famous artists allow us to trace the formation of masters, as well as the development of painting as a whole. The exhibition is decorated with works by Russian painters of the mid 18th and late 19th centuries. Visitors will be able to get acquainted with little-known works of I. Ayvazovsky, O. Antropov, Y. Nikitin, A. Meshchersky, Y. Klever and many others until December 12.

Such genres as a provincial portrait, still life, landscape, phantasmagoric works, as well as masterpieces of ancient Russian icon painting are widely represented at the exhibition. After a thorough restoration, the museum displays for the first time the icons “Our Lady of Tikhvin” with selected saints and scenes from their lives, “Savior. Type Yare Eye. "
