Yury Pavlovich Annenkov, born on July 23, 1889, in Petropavlovsk, Russia, was a visionary artist best known for his contributions to portraiture, stage design, and political illustration during the early 20th century.

Using techniques in oil painting, drawing, and illustration, he created works with intricate lines and geometric forms that gave his subjects a multidimensional quality. Annenkov’s use of shadow and layering added depth and realism, while his bold lines and angularity conveyed the turbulence of his era. His work extended beyond traditional portraiture into theater and set design, where he applied his dynamic style to immersive stage environments, making him a versatile figure within the Russian Avant-Garde.
