Collection of paintings by Ilya Repin
 

More recently, in 2007, the Tretyakov Gallery has acquired with the help of sponsors collection of 25 paintings by Ilya Repin. These sheets were kept in Germany, the son of immigrants from Russia, which inherited the legacy, in turn, from Guy Repin, the grandson of the artist. After the restoration drawings impose the general public. In appearance, they can, and homely (mostly here cursory sketches and sketches for future paintings), but very significant for understanding the creativity of the author. Also, once again showed that he was a master with a pencil and pen. Separate bonus to this great exhibition is attached sheet Peredvizhnik Alexander Litovchenko on from Russian history. Painting has never before left the reservists - and now, after the restoration, demonstrated viewers.
