It presents an all- encompassing picture of the development of French art over a period of about six centuries, spanning the Renaissance and our own times. This collection, numbering nearly 600 works, has been built up in the course of three centuries thanks to the efforts of many people, among whom were statesmen, eminent connoisseurs, scholars and private individualsBeginning in the eighteenth century, French culture was always in the focus of Russian society’s attention. Russia maintained close links with France in a variety of fields, including politics and philosophy The role of French Enlightenment in the evolution of Russian thought is generally known, as is the influence which the French fine arts exercised on the formation of Russian artists. The collecting of French paintings by Russians was far from a superficial or fleeting fashion.
