Museum of Russian Icons - A new museum of icon painting in Moscow, which opened Today

Spacious, several floors, and quite a lot of icons. No shame.

most pleased with a conversation between two babisch journalists about thirty to thirty-five, who aspirated said: "Wow What a museum!" So many icons! Not that I was now in the Tretyakov Gallery in the exhibition Rublev, there is very little, and look nothing! ". specify that they said it standing here next to this lovely and charming lady, the dignity which I did not want to downplay:


Virgin Kazan. 1 st floor. 18 th century, Galich.
whole room like that, of course, far more valuable than a piece of something there Rublev.

But in general I liked it.
Very funny and curious veshchichki, mainly late. In general, a large museum, a few floors, icons, as they write, 600.




Forefather Abel. 1 st third of 18 century.


Christ Pantocrator. 1 st floor. 18 century


Descent from the Cross. Celebratory rite. Kostroma lands. End of 17 century - around 1700.


Reverend Theodosius Totma. 19 century.
That such unpretentious icons of saints and monasteries - a zalchik. The fact that the patron of a money earned in the construction business, and therefore icon of buildings and structures - this is his personal personal passion.


St. Nicholas of Myra. Around the mid-18 century. Vologda north
Beautiful and wrinkled.


Bishop Tikhon Amafunitsky, saints and Zosimus Savvaty, Martyr Paraskeva and Anastasia. Kostroma Province, 1 st floor. 18 th century.


Vernicle. The last third of 18 century. Moscow or St. Petersburg.
