Museum of Folk Prints
original name: Музей народной графики
The lubok is an independent visual system, not a low echo of high art, and in Moscow it is shown only here. The collection is small, the subject unique and almost nowhere else treated as art.

About the museum

Of interest to children
The lubok is pictures with captions and children follow it. One hall, half an hour.
Access for visitors with limited mobility
The museum — not checked. Access not checked.
Getting there — partly. Sukharevskaya has no lift. Moscow metro stations almost never have lifts to the platform, except on the Big Circle line and the MCC. A wheelchair user is better served by the surface buses, which are low-floor across the centre.
