About
Why this artist matters now
Fedor Alekseyvich Afanasiev hailed from an Orthodox peasant family in Dubrovsky, in western Russia’s Smolensky District. Initially, Afanasiev was schooled in his village. In 1883, however, at the age of thirteen, Afanasiev moved to St Petersburg, where he was accepted as an apprentice in the Nevsky Prospekt workshop of Finnish master goldsmith Enok Sistonen.
