Animalism is the most ancient genre of fine art, it is rock art, totemic animal figurines, monumental sculpture of the pre-Christian era … The Tsaritsyno collection allows us to trace how the image of the animal world has changed over the centuries.

Before restoration, the dilapidated historical and architectural landmark Tsaritsyno did not encourage visitors to return there. One of the finest examples of Russian architecture was saved from destruction after the Museum of Decorative and Applied Arts was accommodated on its premises. Money from exhibitions are channeled into the reconstruction of this remarkable architectural monument.
