Summary/Abstract: Maximilian Kirienko-Voloshin (known as Maximilian Voloshin), a Russian poet and painter, was a colourful, maverick person; it is not possible to assess him unequivocally. He made a strong impression on people around him, which is reflected in abundant literary memoirs. When the opinions of Ivan Bunin, Marina Tsvetaeva, Eugenia Gertsyk, Nadezhda Teffi and Boris Sadovskoy are analysed, a heterogenetic picture of the artist emerges. His unusual demeanor and clothing, and surprising beliefs - often perceived as iconoclastic - attracted attention or even led to controversy.
