Ivan Fedorovich Barshchevsky (1851-1948) - photographer, museum figure, master of filming objects of archeology and architecture, captured thousands of objects of national cultural heritage throughout the country on glass negatives. Many architectural monuments destroyed in Soviet times can only be judged by his photographs. In 1910, Barshchevsky's collection of negatives was transferred to the Imperial Stroganov School, and in 1912 a complete catalog of his photographs was published. A few years later, the Stroganov School also released this publication with photographs of objects of Russian decorative and applied art (dishes, interior items, embroidery and sewing, icon salaries, church utensils, platbands and tiles, wooden carvings, etc.). 15 issues. Complete set. Rare.
