The metro station "Tretyakov" - is the shortest

Moscow is replete with art galleries and museums.
Yet there is one gallery that remains a symbol
of Russian art. It is the world-famous Tretyakov Gallery.
Слайд 5
THE TRETYAKOV GALLERY WAS OPENED IN 1856 BY
A RUSSIAN TRADESMAN PAVEL TRETYAKOV, WHO OWNED ONE OF
THE LARGEST ART COLLECTIONS.
Слайд 6
The gallery has an excellent selection of the
best works by the "peredvizhniki": Ilya Repin (including "Ivan
the Terrible and His Son Ivan"), Victor Vasnetsov, Ivan Shishkin, Vasiliy Surikov ("The Morning of the Strelets Execution"), Vasiliy Vereshchagin and others.
Слайд 12
EVERY YEAR THE TRETYAKOV GALLERY ATTRACTS MILLIONS OF
VISITORS. IT’S CONSIDERED TO BE NOT ONLY AN ART
GALLERY, BUT ALSO A LARGE CULTURAL AND EDUCATIONAL CENTER.
Слайд 13
WHAT WE LIKED The main building of the gallery
includes the renovated Tretyakov home and several buildings that
were attached to it at various times. The main facade of the building was erected in 1902 according to plans by the artist Victor Vasnetsov. In 1994, the Tretyakov Gallery opened after 10 years of restoration. This was not just a facelift to the building; the interior and technical equipment were brought up to the highest standards of quality, which is as it should be, since it contains so many treasures of Russian art.
