From the age of seven Rice began writing poetry and wrote them all my life, as the saying goes, "in the table." Along with the high school attended the "School of painting, drawing Yu Pan, which at the same time taking lessons and future famous artist Marc Chagall. The teacher fell in love with his sixteen-year student and wrote her portrait with cat in her lap, calling it "Two kitties.


After graduation in 1913 until the spring of Rice High School in 1914 was in Belgium, and then visited in 1916 - 1918 in Petrograd, the school encouraging artists at the Academy of Arts, where he moved to the 4-th course.

Then, during the four years she lived then in Petrograd, in Vitebsk, not yet arrived in VHUTEMAS - Higher Art Technical Studios, dean of the picturesque course on the faculty of Robert Rafailovich Falk. On his first impression of him, she recorded in her diary: "I saw somewhere at the top is very thin, very tired face of a man of 35. Through round glasses at me closely and gently saw the big, wide open blue-gray eyes. "Is this as big as a child-helpless myope - Professor Falk "?!... From the way he looks at my work, comparing it with the kind, by the way listening to my incoherent speech, I made it clear that Falk was a teacher, an artist and the man I wanted to meet!

Soon after Rice became the wife of Falk. Him she dedicates a number of poems.
In 1927, Rice Veniaminovna travels with her husband in Paris. After a year and a half back, and after a brief stay in parents in Vitebsk, arrives in Moscow.

Lucy, great that you published systematically collected information about the RV

For the sake of justice, still want to see that Aleksandar Veniaminovna after what happened to her unhappiness led an active lifestyle. Although she did not leave the scene, but she taught at the Jewish Theater School.

Alexander Veniaminovna Azarh-Granovsky (1892, Vitebsk - November 6, 1980, Moscow) - Russian actress, director and theater teacher.

At seventeen, she graduated from high school in Vitebsk, and as many if Jewish boys and girls, for which Russian universities were inaccessible because of the notorious "interest rate", went to study medicine, first in Belgium, in Brussels, and in 1913 transferred to the Paris. A year later came home on vacation to see his parents, and there, in Vitebsk, and it caught the top of the First World War. Return to France was not meant to be. In 1915, Alexander arrived in Petrograd-based VM Bekhterev Psychoneurological Institute. In the same year there was her acquaintance with a young director Alexander Mikhailovich Granovsky. This determined her whole future life. Two years later they married and soon after the February Revolution left the country. In 1919 they returned to Petrograd. After visiting the theaters in Sweden, Denmark, Norway, being among the interests of her husband, Alexander, and very interested in theater. She decides to devote his life to the theater.

In Moscow Azarh-Granovskaya taught acting at the Jewish Theater School at GOSET, and then there was in charge of the Department acting. Two years after the return of Alexander Veniaminovna on the way home from the theater came under the tram and left without a leg. "And then she worked on the prosthesis. For me send a car "- she recalled. Naturally, her worried about how she would cope with the movement on stage: in fact, without legs, there could be no talk of the show. She was a stubborn: "It made me think of a way as to explain the necessity of a movement in a particular rhythm, depending on one or another performed the role of the task only with words, but it is so clear that I understood this to could replace the show. " And it worked! She has released four performances (including "Family Oppenheim" and "Wandering Stars"), has trained many actors who later worked in various cities across the country. From maloprosveschennyh, young suburbanites studio preparing educated, cultural artists. Often, her students gathered at her house: sang, recited poems and played. She lived an art - it was always interested in theater, painting, poetry, music. Skillfully, lovingly passed on their knowledge.

October 16th, 1980 Alexandra Veniaminovna robbed. From her apartment burglars took away three paintings R. Falk and one Y. Peng. It is very hard going through it and died on November 6, before reaching the age of 89 years.

Falkowski old - Raisa Veniaminovna Veniaminovna and Alexander lived in a house behind the shop "Tea" at the Kirov, Raisa Veniaminovna was the widow of the artist Falk. It was stiff, intellectual salon. There engaged in enlightenment: to promote, if I may say so, the post-Silver Age. Went there all. There I was, fifteen years, I found out who the Andrei Platonov (he was in the house of the sisters in general has been the subject of worship), and then argued that there is in Moscow, some abruptly author of "pit", referring to Mamleeva. And when Yuri came to read there, the old women simply had nowhere to drop an apple ...
In general, the capacity of small rooms - it's some mystery geometry. Of fifty to sixty people for fifteen to twenty square meters! And yet another mystery, as one day regulars time to travel around half the town to drink, philosophize and make love!
- How nurses react to the product Mamleeva?
- For the eyes, of course, "the horror, the horror, the horror." But if he agreed to have them read, were always happy.

Off-topic, but I can not say about this portrait.
After writing it was stored at Falk, Falk was subsequently cut off and presented Azarh (I think in the forties).
And now looks like this:

Obviously he's him and corrected a bit.
