Lazare Gallery offers a carefully curated collection representing over 70 artists spanning the 19th century to the present. Nineteen of these artists are distinguished alumni of the Surikov Institute—one of Russia’s most revered centers of classical training. The remaining works are rare and meaningful discoveries from across the post-Soviet world and select American painters who share a commitment to traditional realism.
The gallery also holds a significant collection of 20th-century Russian masters, offering collectors a unique opportunity to explore the enduring lineage of this rich artistic tradition.
