Russian, Soviet artist and teacher, member of the art group “Jack of Diamonds”, professor of painting and head of the personal workshop of the Leningrad Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture named after I. E. Repin. In 1910 he studied at the St. Petersburg School of the Society for the Encouragement of Artists at the Academy of Arts, then in 1911–1912 he studied at the Kiev Art School under the direction of Nikolai Kornilyevich Pimonenko, and later in Moscow at the school-studio of Ilya Ivanovich Mashkov. At this time, the group of Russian artists "Jack of Diamonds" began to dominate Moscow art circles, and Osmerkin's mentor Ilya Mashkov was one of its founders. He was also a member of the “Society of Moscow Artists” and AHRR associations. He was strongly influenced by P. Cezanne, as well as French Fauvism and Cubism. After the revolution, from 1918 to 1948, Osmerkin was actively involved in teaching; he taught at the Free Art Workshops (later renamed the Higher Art and Technical Workshops, VKHUTEMAS), at the Leningrad Academy of Arts, and the Moscow Art Institute named after V. I. Surikov. The works are kept in the State Tretyakov Gallery, the State Russian Museum, the Kiev Museum of Russian Art, the Art and Memorial Museum of A.A. Osmerkin in Kirovograd, as well as in other museum and private collections.
