A book with a handwritten drawing and an autograph

Fyodor Dostoevsky is a Russian writer, thinker, philosopher and publicist. The classic of world literature, according to UNESCO, is one of the most widely read writers in the world. Dostoevsky's collected works consist of 12 novels, four short stories, 16 short stories and many other works.

The Stargift collection contains a fragment of the lifetime edition of Fyodor Dostoevsky's book "Notes from the Dead House", pages: 31-244.

The handwritten drawing of the writer, presented on the last page of the fragment, is dated by the author himself — 1874. In the center of the drawing is the personal signature of Fyodor Dostoevsky. According to the expert, the drawing depicts a self—portrait of the writer, as well as portraits of Leo Tolstoy, literary critic Nikolai Strakhov and Dostoevsky's wife Anna Grigoryevna. The identity of the latter is helped to establish, among other things, the initials left by the author on the profile of the depicted woman: "A. G.".

It is known that it was Anna Grigoryevna who saved the "notebooks" of the writer, containing most of his drawings, as the greatest jewel. So, thanks to her thrift, Dostoevsky's graphic sketches are now known, made by him in the process of thinking over the plots of "Crime and Punishment", "Idiot", "Demons", "Teenager", "Brothers Karamazov". Of the total number of famous drawings by Dostoevsky, human portraits make up only about 7%.

In addition to its uniqueness, the drawing is also interesting in the history of the relationships of the people depicted on it. Two great writers of their era, Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, being contemporaries, never met in person. After Fyodor Mikhailovich's death, Tolstoy wrote in a letter to Strakhov: "I wish I could say everything I feel about Dostoevsky. I had never seen this man and had never had a direct relationship with him; and suddenly, when he died, I realized that he was the closest, dearest, most necessary person to me."

Nikolai Strakhov is a Russian philosopher, publicist, literary critic, and corresponding member of the St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences. Strakhov was one of the first to appreciate the enormous literary significance of Tolstoy's novel "War and Peace", and became the first biographer of Dostoevsky. Since the beginning of 1861, Strakhov was an active employee of the literary and political magazines "Time" and "Epoch" of the Dostoevsky brothers. Dostoevsky's works such as "Humiliated and Insulted", "Notes from the Dead House", "A Nasty Joke", "Winter Notes on Summer Impressions" and "Notes from the Underground" appeared on the pages of these magazines.
