Dorich House holds the largest single collection of Gordine's bronze and plaster sculptures, as well as many of her paintings and drawings. The collection spans from her early years in Paris in the 1920s to her last works made in the studios of Dorich House in the 1960s and 70s.

The Russian art collection includes icons, paintings, ceramics, glassware, metalwork, folk art and furniture dating from the early 18th century to the early 20th century. Richard Hare's impeccable taste and scholarship are reflected in the rarer items of the collection which he acquired from auctions, private collectors and during visits to Russia. It was his wish that the collection be left to the British public to be exhibited in Dorich House.
The archive consists of photographs, architectural drawings, press cuttings, books, correspondence and taped interviews. For further information on the contents of the archive and/or to make an appointment please contact the curator.
