Pushkin Museum (Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts) Tours and Activities
206 reviews
The Pushkin Museum (Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts) is the largest European art museum in Moscow, with over 560,000 works of art. Opened in 1912, it actually has no connection to Alexander Pushkin, the famous Russian poet – it was simply renamed in his honor in 1937 to mark the centenary of his death.
The museum includes an impressive collection of Dutch and Flemish masterpieces from the 17th century, including several works by Rembrandt, as well as Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works by painters such as Van Gogh, Matisse, Gauguin and Picasso. The latter are now housed in a new Gallery of European & American Art of the 19th and 20th centuries next door to the main museum building. Many of the museum’s paintings were obtained in the 1920s and 1930s when private estates were nationalized; other works were taken from the History Museum, the Kremlin Museum, the Hermitage and other museums in St Petersburg.
The Pushkin Museum is also home to an Ancient Civilizations exhibit featuring ancient Egyptian artifacts and a Treasures of Troy collection that includes pieces dating back to 2500 BC.

Impressionists and Post-Impressionists in Moscow Fine Arts Museum private tour
Welcome to the tour of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works of the collection of the State Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow. The museum has a really remarkable collection of paintings from late XIX to early XX century France.

His friend Matisse visited him in Moscow to arrange his canvases in Shchukin’s mansion. Morozov collected Picasso, Cezanne, van Gogh. ‘Les Nabis’ artists helped to decorate his music room. Monet’s ‘Rouen Cathedral at Sunset’ is one of the many Impressionists and Post-Impressionists works that make the collection of State Museum of Fine Arts in Moscow one of the world’s best. During this tour you will be introduced to the most famous and valuable paintings, including the works of Monet, Renoire, Cezanne, Gauguin and van Gogh, Matisse, Picasso.

Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts Private Tour. Enjoy the rich art collections!
The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts is Moscow’s premier foreign-art museum, showing off a broad selection of European works, mostly appropriated from private collections after the revolution. The exposition of the Museum includes today a vast collection of tinted plaster casts of famous ancient, medieval and Renaissance sculptures and a collection of original works of foreign artists, sculptors and graphics together with objects of decorative arts. The museum's greatest treasures are to be found in its collection of European art from 1600, particularly the perennially popular and vastly comprehensive collection of French impressionists and post-impressionists, which comes close to that of the Musee d'Orsay in scope.

Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts Guided Tour in Moscow
The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts was founded by Moscow University professor Ivan Tsvetaev in 1912 as the "Museum of Fine Arts named after Emperor Alexander III at the Imperial Moscow University."
The museum building was designed by the architect Roman Klein in the neoclassical style in the form of an antique temple. In the beginning, the museum was architected as an educational one, but after the 1917 revolution, the institution was transformed into the State Museum of Fine Arts.
In 1937, the museum was named after the poet Alexander Pushkin.
The exposition consists of more than 700 thousand items and includes a collection of casts from antique statues, works of art, archaeological finds, as well as a collection of items from Ancient Egypt and Ancient Rome. The museum is famous for its collection of impressionism.
