Does someone an artist?
 

Recently I came across a number of works in oil on cardboard. 1930 - 40's.
On the back of the signature MEN Solomon Abramovich. Perhaps what is known about him and his fate.

When I was a kid, I lived with him in the same house in Moscow. He was then (mid-seventies) was old, so I'm not particularly paid attention to him and his wife ... They later moved to somewhere. Only later did I learn that he was one of the few in Russia these specialists on descriptive geometry and in collaboration with others even published a textbook, which taught many of the engineers. If his name search on inetu, a reference to this book falls into. To my regret, about his work as an artist I know almost nothing.

If interested, then I probably be hard to find people who can remember when he died and where buried. Mylte, if that.

And this is one and the same person, the author of the textbook and the artist?

Yes, I was told that he was a mathematician.
