The Merchant Pryanichnikov's House (branch of Tula Museum of Fine Arts)

This museum of Russian art and contemporary art is situated in the Merchant Pryanichnikov’s House, one of the most remarkable buildings in the merchant town of Krapivna. It has an exhibition of the Russian art of the 19th and 20th centuries. You can find canvases by famous Russian artists Shishkin, Savrasov, Aivazovsky, Levitan and others in its rooms. The contemporary art hall displays the works of the famous painter Konchalovsky as well as Rozhdestvensky and Osmerkin, his fellow artists from the Knave of Diamonds group. The works of the famous Tula artist Porfiry Krylov are also featured there. You can also find the paintings by various artists depicting Yasnaya Polyana motifs.

The Museum presents other art objects too like furniture, porcelain, and glass art that complement the museum’s environment. All showpieces come from the collection of the Tula Museum of Fine Arts.

The Merchant Pryanichnikov’s House is a historical building, the theme of how a small Russian town’s merchant life used to be marks the entire exhibition. The mezzanine recreates a merchant living room — a place to receive guests and have a nice time among the nearest and dearest. The Pryanichnikov’s’ old photographs and documents can also be found here.

A resident of Krapivna 22 February 2024
There was a man at the entrance door, who turned out to be a guard. Instead of an invitation, he "barked" and said.that I should wear shoe covers, even though I was old enough to wear shoes without them. The impression is untidy. I didn't want to go. And this is not the only case.

It's a beautiful building, and it's very cozy inside. And it is a pity that all this beauty does not work for the benefit of children's development.There are few master classes and classes for local children. I would like art to live and work for the development of children, and not as a separate, closed state inside a small village. Very few tourists come to Krapivna, and the museums are funded.Who is it for?

It's a beautiful building. It has been restored almost from ruins. A very interesting tour, I definitely recommend it!
