Belarusian National Arts Museum
About This Museum
People come to the Belarusian National Arts Museum not just to see art, but to walk through the very soul of the region. It’s a place where you can spend hours getting lost in the rich, atmospheric landscapes of Belarusian masters and then turn a corner to be confronted by the dramatic power of Russian realist painting. The collection feels both intimate and grand, telling a deep story of cultural identity and artistic exchange. You leave feeling like you've understood something fundamental about this part of the world.
Collection Highlights
Look for the poignant rural scenes by Belarusian artists like Ivan Khrutsky, with their incredibly detailed still lifes, and then contrast them with the bold, often monumental works from Russian painters. The sculpture halls add a wonderful three-dimensional weight to the experience.
