Говоря о художественных галереях Москвы, мы должны упомянуть самые известные из них.
Государственная Третьяковская галерея является одной из самых известных в России. Она названа в честь основателя, Павла Третьякова, московского торговца. В 19-м столетии Третьяков начал собирать российские картины. Он посетил все выставки и художественные

студии и купил лучшие картины. Постепенно Третьяков расширил свои интересы и начал собирать более ранние российские картины.
В 1881 г. Третьяков открыл галерею в Санкт-Петербурге для общественности, 11 лет спустя он пожертвовал ее для города Москвы. С тех пор галерея получила сотню картин от других музеев и частных коллекций. Третьяковская галерея отражает целую историю российских картин с XI столетия до настоящего времени.
Государственный Пушкинский музей изящных искусств также является одним из известных и самых больших музеев в России. Здание в греческом стиле было построено Романом Кляйном в 1898-1912 гг., в качестве музея изящных искусств, основанного в соответствии с инициативой профессора Ивана Кветаева. С 1937 г. он получил известность как Пушкинский музей изящного искусства. В нем одна из крупнейших в мире древних коллекций европейского искусства.
