If you’d like to see an example of a wooden house in Moscow built by an artist for himself and his family at the end of the XIX century I would highly recommend a visit to Victor Vasnetsov house-museum. The house with an art studio was built according to Vasnetsov’s drawing in 1894.
the artist’s studio with a wide window is on the second floor

One of the early works causes association with the works of another artist of the time – P.Fedotov.

Besides his own house, V.Vasnetsov designed in Moscow the façade of the Tretyakov Gallery (1904), E. Tsvetkov’s house on the embankment of the Moscow River (1901-03), and took part in the design project of the church in Abramtsevo (1881).
