"Everything Savva Ivanovich did was secretly guided by art." K.S. Stanislavsky. Fyodor Chaliapin, Viktor Vasnetsov, Ilya Repin, Valentin Serov, Mikhail Vrubel, Vasily Polenov, Konstantin Korovin - we know these names largely thanks to Savva Ivanovich Mamontov - a Russian philanthropist, entrepreneur and desperate lover of art. He not only liked painting, sculpture, music and theater - he literally lived art, trying himself in its various directions and in every possible way supporting other creators.
