Memorial Day Mary Bashkirtseva

[uriart]

As far as I know, so the name Bashkirtsev to Ukrainian surname not.
This is a Russian surname.
And the fact that I was born in the Poltava region in the family marshal of the nobility, because it says only one thing that is very much Russian population in the then Malolrossii their estates.
I would say so, the birth of Russian in Ukraine.
If Pimonenko or Levchenko, Ukrainian artists because they had not been put into the category of Russian artists.
While all these divisions on the Russian or Ukrainian is more politics than art.
What a hell is the difference?
Monet - French. Do we stop to admire his creations?
A Lancere, Benoit, Russified French.
And how many Germans Russified and became Russian artists!
Can lead a lot of examples.
