you are: At ' the descendant aristippa '

We know about a life jusupovskih actors very little. In a museum ' Arkhangelsk ' some portraits made a pastel, some, possibly have remained, represent serf actors: the timid beginnings of XIX century of the girl brushed on a fashion with chubby sponges and sad eyes - who they? It is not known.

From a cloth of the unknown artist the thin girl looks at us with a wreath on a head: she is serf actress Anna Burunova.

N.B.Jusupov has been connected with Pushkin's family. The great poet was born in Moscow, in the house belonging JUsupovu.

In a poem ' In the beginning of a life the school is remembered by me ' Pushkin recollected: ' a magnificent gloom of another's garden '. Possibly, it was a garden at house JUsupova, in Moscow where the future poet drove to walk the boy. Possibly, here, in these shady avenues, serf actresses walked under supervision of watchmen.

I of light waters and leaves Loved noise,

And white in a shade derev idols,

And in faces their press of motionless thoughts

All - marble compasses and lyres,

Swords and rolls in marble hands,

On heads of monastery, on shoulders porphyries -

All directed sweet certain fear

To me on heart; and tears vdohnovenja

At the sight of them were born on eyes.

N.B.Jusupov was the planted father on Ampere-second wedding. Pushkin.
