Description of the incident location
The museum was opened on October 29, 2010. Its collection includes 2,200 works of painting, graphics, sculpture, and decorative and applied arts from various art schools in Ukraine. The museum's exposition included works by Mykola Hlushchenko, Tetiana Yablonska, Mykhailo Derehus, Ivan Marchuk, Ivan Aivazovsky, and, of course, Arkhip Kuindzhi and his students.
On March 21, the museum was destroyed by a direct hit from a russian air strike. At the time of the bombing, the original works of Arkhip Kuindzhi were not in the museum. However, the fate of other works of art is still unknown.
On April 27, the press reported that the russians had taken the original works of Ukrainian artist Arkhip Kuindzhi from the Mariupol Art Museum. The works handed over to the enemy are now in the Donetsk Museum of Local Lore. These are the originals of three paintings by Arkhip Kuindzhi "Red Sunset", "Autumn. Crimea" and "Elbrus", the original of Ivan Aivazovsky's painting "Off the Coast of the Caucasus", the originals of two works by Mykola Dubovsky "The Sea" and "Night on the Baltic Sea", the original of Hryhoriy Kalmykov's posthumous portrait of Kuindzhi in 1910, a bust of Arkhip Kuindzhi by sculptor Volodymyr Beklemishev, three unique icons from the late 19th century, a Greek Gospel from 1811 and items of decorative and applied art.
