The Scientific Photograph Archive was established by I.E. Grabar' in 1913 and holds photographs, negatives of 1900–2006, photograph albums of late 19th–earlier 20th centuries, and slides of Russian and foreign pictorial art. The systematic photographing of works in the gallery collections was done by Moscow’s finest photographers—A.V. Liadov, Iu.I. Lepkovskii, and I.N. Aleksandrov. The collection has been supplemented through the acquisition of negatives from institutions and private individuals. Thus the collection includes photographs of the work of more than 1,000 Russian and more than 2,000 Soviet painters and graphic artists, covering all of the collections in the museum as well as others. There is a special group of photographs devoted to the history of the gallery, making it possible to recreate fully the appearance of the halls and their exhibits during various periods. Some of the photographs represent holdings in other major art collections, like those of the former Rumiantsev Museum, the I.S. Ostroukhov Gallery (Museum of Painting and Icon Painting), and the Tsvetkov Gallery. An important section of the Photograph Archive is devoted to photographs of buildings and houses of architectural interest in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and other cities and towns in Russia, taken between 1900 and 1917. Video Archive (Muzeinoe video) was established in 1990. Working conditions: Researchers are accommodated in working offices. Reference facilities: There are inventories of accessions and a card catalogue of negatives. Copy facilities: Photographic copies from negatives may be ordered in the photographic laboratory. |
