About the artist: Glushchenko Nikolay Petrovich was born in the city of Novomoskovsk, Yekaterinoslav province (now the Dnipropetrovsk region). In 1918 he graduated from a commercial school in the city of Yuzovka (now Donetsk). Soon Glushchenko was enlisted into the Volunteer Army of Denikin for mobilization. After some time, with the remnants of the White Guard units, he ended up in Poland. There he ended up in an internment camp, and from there fled to Germany. He studied at the School-Studio of Hans Balushek in Berlin. In the years 1920-24. studied at the Berlin higher school of fine arts.

He created portraits of Romain Roland and Henri Barbusse and others. He designed the Soviet pavilion of the Lyon Fair.
