[pic][is.jpg]The museum building was erected from 1903-1905 and was leased to the Riga City Art Museum and the Society for the Promotion of Art. It is an impressive turn of the century example of academic architecture designed by the museum's first director Wilhelm Neumann. Latvian art was actively collected in the 1920s-1930s, when the director of the museum was the distinguished Latvian painter Professor Vilhelms Purvitis. The museum occupies two floors. The ground floor houses the collection of Baltic painting from the mid 18th century - mid 19th century. A broad chronological account of the development of Latvian professional art from the mid 19th century - 1945 is presented on the second floor. Notable Russian artists with works on show include Nikolaj Rerih. The museum houses a temporary exhibition hall, which presents about ten exhibitions each year, including displays of prominent Latvian contemporary artists, Latvian art classics, thematic and conceptual displays and international touring exhibitions.
