He first began to acquire engravings and lithographs by Western European artists, then small canvases, mostly landscapes by seventeenth- century Dutch painters. In the mid- nineteenth century there were other collectors of Russian paintings both in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

The collection contains more than 130,000 works of painting, sculpture and graphics, created throughout the centuries by successive generations of Russian artists.
