"Theatre in A.A.Osmerkin's creative work"

The basis of the exposition is made up of unique photos of Alexander Osmerkin in theatre costumes from the family album, that were given to the museum by the artist's widow Nadezhda Gerorgievna Osmerkina, and rare copies of photo-documentary materials from Russian State Archive of Literature and Art (Moscow). All these photos and documents present A.A.Osmerkin's theatre work - costumes and sets sketches for different performances, playbills and invitation cards for the premieres in the leading theatres of Moscow and Leningrad.
