This collection gained popularity and appreciation of Russian public because of Tretyakov's good choices of art for his collection.
The building where the collection was kept used to be the mansion of Tretyakov brothers. It was rebuilt several times to accomodate the growing collection.
The collection was opened to the public in 1874 as a private musem and was presented to the city of Moscow 18 years later.
In 1913 the principle of the pictures' placing in the gallery was changed by Igor Grabar, the Curator of the gallery at that time. It helped to make The Tretyakov Gallery a museum of European standarts.
In 1917 the collection was nationalised and the Gallery was transformed into a state museum.
The Gallery's collection increased a lot in the soviet period, becoming huge by today, with some 47000 works of art and 1700000 annual visitors.
