Buy Art – Original Works from the Don Foundation Collection
When people say they want to buy art, they usually mean an original work with a known author rather than a reproduction. The collection of the Don auction house and foundation holds 632 works: painting, original and edition graphic art, prints, sculpture, objects, photography and decorative arts. Every piece lists its author, year, technique and size, and often provenance and expertise. from 280 to 7 000 000 ₽; from 4 000 to 100 000 $ (some works are priced in US dollars).
The section is arranged as a single catalogue, making it easy to choose a work of art for a collection, an interior or a gift. Russian and Soviet classics of the late 19th to mid 20th century sit alongside nonconformist and contemporary artists; works by 122 artists authors cover landscape, still life, portrait and abstraction. You can browse the full collection in the catalogue, and works by living artists in the contemporary art section.
We show originals, not printed copies. For each work the author, date and technique are known, and many come with a history of ownership and an expert opinion. This sets the collection apart from marketplaces and classifieds, where 'art' often means mass-produced decor. The artist's name on each card links to their page with a biography and other works.
There are two ways to buy a work of art: acquire it directly at the listed price, or take part in online auctions on the BidSpirit platform, where the Don foundation holds its sales. Prices are shown in roubles, and for some pieces also in dollars and euros. We handle the paperwork and delivery across Russia and abroad, and can help with selection.
The range is broad: from affordable prints and decorative-art pieces to well-known names such as Mikhail Shemyakin, Ernst Neizvestny and Vladimir Nemukhin, as well as foreign artists including prints by Pablo Picasso and Marc Chagall. The Don auction house and foundation are based in Rostov-on-Don, 16th Liniya 7A; you can choose and order a work online from any region.
