Abstract

The article presents materials from the fund of the Altai State Museum of Local Lore, included in the complex of museum items - various works by G.I. Choros-Gurkin in the technique of pencil drawing and ink drawing and presented to the writer A. Shapovalova during her meeting with the artist in 1930, when she was traveling in the Altai Mountains. Later, in 1976, A. Shapovalova herself handed over the drawings to the museum. The study of ethnographic sketches was carried out in the form of a formal stylistic art history analysis of individual drawings. They are of particular value as ethnographic scientific sources illustrating various aspects of the traditional culture of the Altai peoples. The samples of Gurkin’s creative heritage selected for the study are works of unique graphics, marked by a combination of a high level of artistic performance with accuracy and thematic representativeness.
