Museum

Art gallery in Crimea

The Aivazovsky National Art Gallery is a national art museum in Feodosia, Crimea, one of the oldest art museums in Ukraine. The first exhibition was privately organised by Ivan Aivazovsky's in his house in 1845. The basis collection included his 49 paintings. In 1880 an additional exhibition hall was attached to the house. The gallery became the third museum in the Russian Empire, after the Hermitage Museum and the Tretyakov Gallery. After Aivazovsky's death in 1900, the ownership of the gallery was transferred to the city according to his testament.
