SUBALBUM:  Princess Maria Klavdievna Tenisheva

This stylish woman was an accomplished artist in her own right who operated an art school with Ilya Repin. She also founded what is now known as the Bryansk State Technical University. Bryansk is located south of Moscow near Belarus (take the M3 south from Moscow and then go east on the A141).

There is a biographic article about her here. There are also discussions of her here and here.
