More than 400 ancient Russian icons evoke the world of Orthodox sacred art from the XIII to the XX century.

The collection is regarded as one of the most important in the West for its chronological variety, its narrative themes, and the presence of some true masterpieces. A selection of 130 icons is permanently exhibited in the Galleries of Leoni Montanari Palace; the others are preserved in a special warehouse and are available to scholars and art-lovers.
