Саратовский государственный         художественный музей           имени А.Н.Радищева

By contrast, the collection of the late 19th century Russian art       assumed basically its final shape within Alexei Bogoliubov's       lifetime, who asssociated with the most prominent artists of the        time.That accounts for the broad selection of first-rate canvases        by Ivan Shishkin, Fedor Vasiliev, Ilya Repin and other Itinerants        in the museum's  collection.       I.Repin's portraits of his daughter Nadia and Alexei Bogoliubov,        a lifelong friend of the artist's, rate among the best creations       belonging to his brush.       The museum possesses the country's best collection of Bogoliubov        numbering over 200 paintings, studies and about  himself,       1000 sheets of graphic  works.

Of the most value are his picturesque landscapes imbued with a       chamber mood, which follow the tradition of French realistic        landscape painting.  Due to the works, accumulated in the museum         within the 20's (among which were the paintings by Vasili Surikov,      Alexei Savrasov and Isaak Levitan), this section was significantly       extended to represent every conspicuous phenomenon    of national       artistic herittage.  The Russian art of the turn the 19th and 20th      centuries, extremely rich in bright, but not inferequently coflicting      phenomena,   is comprehensively represented in the museum.      Primarily, that refers to the works of the leading figures    of two most       significant artistic associations of the   time in Russia -the       "World of Art"and the "Association of the Russian Artists".

The retrospective vision of the "World of Art" masters,     prone to poeticize the past, merging with the exquisite     stylistics of their creations, can be observed in the works by     Konstantin Bogaevsky, Nikolai Roerich, Alexander Benois and     Konstantin Somov. Close the "World of Art" is Alexander Golovin,         an outstanding theatrical designer, represented in collection by     both  sketches for his stage sets and easel-painting.          The paintings of Moscow member of the "Association of the      Russian Artists"(Valentin Serov,  Konstantin Korovin, Abram Arkhipov,      Sergei Vinogradov, Stanislaw Zhukovsky and others)  are distinguished        by an unrestrained artistic creativity, an intense interest in the model        and an  outspoken emotionality.

The urge to partray Russia and its distinctive national character        is traced not only in the paintings  by Nikhail Nesterov,       Philipp Maliavin and Boris Kustodiev, but in the works of the      artists, who belonged to so-called "Russian avant-garde", and,      primarily, to the "Jack of Diamonds" art association:Petr Konchalovsky,      Ilya Mashkov, Alexander Kuprin, Robert Falk' Aristarkh Lentulov.        A prominent place in the exhibition is occupied by the artists of the       "Saratov school". A loft and poetical treatment of the motif         together with a monumental and decorative way of its representation         are typical of such different artists as Viktor Borisov-Musatov,       Pavel Kuznetsov, Petr Utkin , Alexander Savinov         and the sulptor Alexander Matveev.
