About this photograph
This photograph, taken by Bergamasco in St. Petersburg, shows Mrs. Petrunkevitch in a head-and-shoulders portrait. The image was transferred to the Library of Congress from the Manuscript Division in 1973 as part of the George Kennan Papers.
Beyond these facts, the archive provides no information about Mrs. Petrunkevitch's identity, her connection to George Kennan, or why her portrait was included in his papers. The photographer Bergamasco operated a studio in St. Petersburg, but the record offers no further details about the studio or the circumstances of this sitting.
