Elizaveta Dorfman
Elizaveta Grigoryevna Dorfman, () or Gerševna (c.1899 - c.1942) was a Jewish Russian artist possibly from Saint Petersburg. Life
Most sources give Dorfman's birth year as 1899, but her World War II refugee registration card gives her birth year as 1898. She provided a cover illustration for Sounding Shell (1921 or 1922), a collection of poetry by the circle surrounding Nikolai Gumilev. She also designed a poster for the 1922 film Blood and Sand. In the late 1930s, Dorfman was living in Sochi. World War II forced her into exile as a Jewish refugee in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. She died there, in 1941 or 1942 during the Blockade of Leningrad.
