Such frames are of unique value. Thus, for the first time the work by  V.D. Polenov "Portrait of the artist Ilya Repin" will be shown in a frame selected by the author himself.

The works presented at the exhibition are the pearls of the Moscow meeting and reveal the evolution of the art of the 19th century, to demonstrate its movement from realism to impressionism and modernity.
