Abstract

The article is based on a series of memoirs dedicated to a pre-revolutionary St. Petersburg socialite baroness Varvara Uexküll von Gyllenband (e.g., those of Ekaterina Letkova-Sultanova and Tatiana Shchepkina-Kupernik). It also specifies the date of a sculptor Prince Sergei Ukhtomsky’s (1886—1921) arrest, and makes public a previously unknown letter from Korney Chukovsky concerning the living conditions of Uexküll von Gyllenband in 1921.
