| Popis: | In the St. Petersburg Alekseevsky Palace, which belonged to the Grand Prince Alexey Alexandrovich (1850–1908), a rich collection of paintings and drawings was gathered. This collection has never come under the scrutiny of researchers. Shortly after the owner's death, it was sold at auction. Thanks to the inventory found in the Russian State Historical Archive, it was possible to reconstruct its contents, which made it possible to judge the artistic preferences of its owner. The collection was based on works by Russian artists of the second half of the 19th century, with many of whom the Grand Prince was personally acquainted. In the article, the pictures are grouped and considered on a thematic basis. The largest section of the collection was made up of works by marine artists. Special attention is paid to the most outstanding and unique exhibits of the collection. The Tretyakov Gallery contains one painting from the collection of the Alekseevsky Palace (A. Gebens. Family. 1856). Its provenance was established thanks to a unique owner's sticker, preserved on the back of the canvas. The study of inventories helped to restore the original name of the work. |
