The ivory objects expand the concept of the subject. This is a curious part of the collection, since the medieval collections of domestic museums mainly contain religious sculpture, and later works are not accessible to the general public. Here you can see the works of masters of Italy, the Netherlands, Germany and France of the XVII - early XX centuries.
