The Museum of Russian Impressionism is an art museum in Moscow dedicated to Russian art at the turn of the twentieth century.

History

The Museum of Russian Impressionism opened on May 28, 2016. It was established by Boris Mints, a Russian entrepreneur (chairman of the board of directors, 01 group), public figure, and arts patron.

In 2012, the British architectural bureau John McAslan + Partners began its restoration project. This building is known for its unusual shape — it is a cylinder with a rectangular parallelpiped on the roof. The mill was converted into a modern museum, ready to open in 2016.

Collections

In The Park (1880) by Russian Impressionist Konstantin Korovin is the earliest painting featured in the museum. It relates to the period when Russian art made its first steps toward Impressionism.
