About Kharkiv Art Museum
The collection of the Kharkiv Art Museum is one of the oldest and most valuable art collections in Ukraine. The history of the museum’s unique collection dates back to 1805, when Kharkiv University acquired 2,477 graphic sheets of Western European masters. This collection included the works of outstanding artists of the 16th–18th centuries: A. Durer, H. Goltzius, L. Giordano, P. Bruegel the Elder, A. van Dyck, F. Boucher and others.
Another predecessor of the museum collection was the Kharkiv City Art and Industry Museum, founded in 1886 – one of the first publicly accessible museums of the Russian Empire. His activity was mainly connected with the creativity of domestic artists.
The modern collection also includes the works of outstanding painters: K. Bryullov, I. Aivazovsky, I. Shishkin, T. Shevchenko, S. Vasylkivsky, P. Martynovych, and others. The collection of I. Repin’s works is also located here. Among these works is the famous canvas “Zaporozhians writing a letter to the Turkish Sultan”.
