On 27 September at 6 PM time, Russian House in Brussels together with the Russian Museum invites you to a virtual tour to the Russian Museum to explore art of the late 19th – early 20th centuries.

The turn of the 19th – 20th centuries in Russian Art is a period of artist’s searches for new ways of expression, development of Russian art nouveau style and neoclassicism movement, appearance of Avant-Garde trends and activity of large art societies.
