In advance I apologize for my bad English. I hope it not too will spoil to you mood when viewing fine photos.

The Don pictures of Ivan Vasilyevich Boldyrev – the unique phenomenon in the history of the national photo, interest in them doesn't weaken already more century, and it wears not only ethnographic and cognitive character.

In these photopatterns originality of authoring vision, intuition of a situation, ability in the laconic graphic form to give the exact figurative characteristic appears more and more clearly. In this sense it is possible to speak with good reason about Boldyrev as about the great original artist who made a noticeable contribution to development of national photography.
