Count Pavel Sergeevich Stroganov (1823-1911) - the great-grandson of the famous Alexander Sergeevich Stroganov, the owner of the Stroganov Palace, a philanthropist, one of the most influential representatives of the nobility in Russian society in the late XVIIIth - early XIXth centuries.
Pavel Stroganov, traveling with his father, Count S.G.Stroganov (1794-1882) and his family in Italy in 1839-1841, captured the image of this country in numerous drawings, which were considered the works of an unknown master until recently.
At the exhibition in the halls of the palace that belonged to the Stroganovs, the Russian Museum will show 60 wonderful drawings from its collection for the first time and comment in a multimedia show how their research was carried out, which made it possible to prove the authorship of Count Pavel Stroganov.
The largest number of works presented shows the beautiful Sorrento and its surroundings. It was these places that awakened creativity in the young representative of the Stroganov dynasty of collectors, largely predetermining also a passionate interest in the landscapes of his own country and the creation of his own art collection.
The exhibition is organized with the support of PAO Severstal and the travel company TUI.
