Photo album of the captain of the Russian army, who worked in Samarkand in 1894-1904. G.A. Pankratiev was patronized by Count N.Ya. Rostovtsev. On a scholarship of 300 rubles received from him, the photographer performed the most complete and detailed, in comparison with previous editions, album of ancient monuments of the city of Samarkand and its environs. The album, equipped with translations of S.A. Lapin Kufic and Arabic inscriptions on mausoleums, was released on sale in only a few dozen copies, at a very low price. In 1904, G. A. Pankratiev left Samarkand and went to serve in the city of Kovno. The bulk of the photographs contain monuments of the heyday of the city in the XIV-XVII centuries, but there are photographs of much earlier buildings.
