Abstract
In this article, it seems important to pay attention to P.M. Tretyakov as one of the participants in the antique art market of the second part of the 19th century. The goal of this article is to define general conclusions about the preferences of Pavel Tretyakov’s acquires and to identify an area for further work. Analysis of P.M. Tretyakov in the antique art market allows us to draw general conclusions about his preferences in collecting and the principles that he adhered to, such as a focused search for works by recognized artists and the desire to achieve some completeness in the purchase of works by individual masters. The question remains about the interaction of the collector with the art dealer in the acquiring of paintings. Studying the history of collecting P.M. Tretyakov can give an idea of the participants in the art market of the second half of the 19th century and clarify the provenance of some works.
