Presumably a doctor involved in the Leningrad the doctors
It seems to be Bobrowski was acquainted with the person depicted in portrete.Budu extremely grateful for any information about the person portrayed, on the terms of personal acquaintances Bobrovskogo.Hudozhnik known for sure who either faced with his okruzheniem.Zaranee grateful s.uv.Yakov.

yak, please, if possible, take a photo of the inscription.

Unfortunately work is not at hand, I can only take pictures tomorrow, but I literally copied the inscription and printed vyshe.Spasibo.

Jacob, and this information can be trusted? Where it is taken? Painting 1935, Bobrowski died in 1942, "the doctors' case" began in January 1953. On what basis is shown associated with the "business doctors"?

It seems to me particularly believe in the''cause''of doctors do not want this information passed from mouth to mouth in a family where there was rabota.Kto then when he said, or assumed, or anything really voobshchem not yasno.God 1935 stands next to the signature of the artist - oil on the front of holsta.Kto and when Set pencil inscription in the back again - do not know about the doctors, in general, only verbal informatsiya.Edinstvennoe that it can be argued, is the fact that the portrait is made G. Bobrowski in 1935 and more or less clearly in the family explains, is that the work was taken from Peter and the fact that the artist was well acquainted with the man shown in portrete.Bolshoe thank you for your participation! s.uv.Yakov.

There is a "Leningrad Affair" (started in the 49th) and "Doctors' Plot" (early 48th g.). Different things and different figures of the.
And.

Can you imagine: the USSR in the 35-m and a person name with the prefix "von"?

I think that in this case "background" simply means "from" and not a noble predicate.

Earlier I wrote that when and by whom Set pencil inscription on the stretcher - not izvestno.Ishodya this seems to me that attach to the doctors did not sleduet.Ya primarily appeal to professionals who know a close circle of friends of the artist in 1930, their years. Thank you.

A-ah ... Ponyatnenko ...

von Stein, Professor Memel , instead of: Professor Stein from Klaipeda.

Tell Wladzislaw and you met with any such replacement "background" to "out", or is it just an assumption erupted over the fact that Memel - it mestnost.Spasibo!.
