Vladimir's art is captured not only in the magnificent architecture of the Vladimir cathedrals and churches, but also in a completely original icon painting.

The heyday of the icon painting in Vladimir is connected with the personality of Prince Andrey Bogolyubsky . It was he who in 1155 moved to Vyshhorod Vladimir, took with him the ion of the Mother of God, which became a model for many generations of Vladimir icon painters . Andrey Bogolyubsky called for the mural of the Vladimir temples of the best masters . The most famous works of that time - Iko and Our Lady of Bogolyubovo, ordered Andrew to his castle temple in Bogolyubov (now the icon is in the Duchess monastery in Vladimir); "The phenomenon of the Archangel Gabriel" and "The Savior of the Golden Vlasy" (which can be seen in the Assumption Cathedral in Moscow) .

Vladimirskaya Zemlya - a source of inspiration for masters of arts and crafts. In the Museum "Crystal, lacquer miniature, embroidery" located in Vladimir Trinity Church exhibits unique lacquer miniatures from Mstera. Fantasy artists seem inexhaustible - jewelry boxes were decorated with epic and historical subjects, fairy-tale characters and complex decorative compositions. Mstera miniature is a continuation of the traditions of Vladimir icon painting in a bright and dynamic manner.

Another fine example of the skill of the masters of the Vladimir land is the products of the glass-blowing masters of the city Gus Khrustalny. For 250 years, the masters have been producing real works of art in the oldest gutting technique, as well as in the classical technique of diamond face and engraving, connoisseurs are admiring about colored multilayer glass mimicking precious metals: gold and silver.
