Notes
- ↑ Graphic artist B. I. Lebedinsky was the curator of the Irkutsk Art Museum for some time and in 1960 recalled: “I had to see from the collection of Erakov only a small part of that vast collection that was well known before the revolution, since the sheets of leading masters were stored there Western Europe (up to seven sheets of Rembrandt were called). ” In the 1930s The authorities made attempts to find a collection of engravings by N.P. Erakov and nationalize them, but they could not find her and her fate is still unknown. In the Irkutsk Art Museum, there is only a small collection of engravings by the animalists Moltruk, Tsobel, Javi and others.
