The Radishev State Art Museum in Saratov, one of the country's oldest museums and the first open-door art exhibition in provincial   Russia, was founded in 1877 , when a famous landscape painter Aleksei Bogoliubov (1824-1896), a grandchild of Alexander
Radishev, an outstanding 18th-century Russian enlightener and writer, presented his large collection to the town of Saratov.
    The erection of the museum building, designed by a Petersburg
architect I.Schtrom, was sponsored by the municipality of the town.
The stone-laying ceremony took place on May 1, 1883, and the
Radishchev Art Museum was opened to the public on June 29, 1885.
Long before the opening ceremony, the very creation of the
mpetusart museum had given a new to the artistic life in Saratov.
In 1888 the Society of Fine Arts Admirers was organized with
a studio, where Viktor Borisov-Musatov, Pavel Kuznetsov,
Petr Utkin and Alexander Matveev, would-be well-known artists
of the "Saratov school", acquired their first professional skills.
All these masters were indisputably influenced by the collection
of the Radishchev museum. In 1897 the Bogoliubov School
of Drawing was opened.    The collection of the museum
started from over 500 objects once belonging to Bogoliubov
