A debut illustrator for "Oskolki" whose drawing Chekhov criticizes in this letter as an unlovely, tavern-house daub, unfortunately given the frontispiece and printed in color for his first appearance in the magazine.
Reading notes
- To N. A. Leikin, 2 September 1887. Moscow. §6 Mr. Yurgenson's debut
A new contributor to "Oskolki" whose first drawing was, in Chekhov's view, mishandled editorially by being made the color frontispiece rather than run modestly, as was customary for a debut.
