Notes
- ↑ 1 2 RKDartists
- ↑ In the directory “List of Russian Artists”, the date of birth of A. Ladurner is 1789, and the exact date of death is June 2, 1855. “The alphabetical index of Russian figures for the Russian Biographical Dictionary” (1887) provides such information: “Ladurner, Adolf Ignatievich 66 l. died June 2, 1855 ... ". However, the Petersburg Necropolis reference book indicates the same date of death on June 2, 1855 (birth date is not indicated) and says that Ladurne (!) Wilhelm-Adolf died at the age of 55. In contemporary art criticism, the date of birth 1798/99 is indicated everywhere, sometimes in doubt.
