In particular, they illegally appropriated the property of the Kherson Art Museum, named after Oleksii Shovkunenko. The museum's permanent exhibition included icon writing of the XVII - early XX centuries and Ukrainian art of the second half of the XIX - early XX centuries. Works of contemporary artists are also presented.

The Russians took the exhibits to the temporarily occupied Simferopol using four trucks.
