I do not know what you call "from the bottom" and "from the top, but SI Shchukin received his primary education at home, and then secondary education in Saxony. Graduated from the Higher Business School in the town of Gera (Bavaria).
In 1882 his father, IV Shchukin bought Prince Trubetskoy Palace in the Big Znamenskoye Lane, 8. Since 1889 it moved Shchukin family. In the mansion were held lavish receptions and house concerts, there were representatives of the nobility, commercial and industrial elite, intellectuals - KS Stanislavsky, FI Chaliapin, SV Rachmaninoff, SP Diaghilev etc.
