Vladimir Ivanovich Nemirovich-Danchenko (Russian: Владимир Иванович Немирович-Данченко; 23 December [O.S. 11 December] 1858, in Ozurgeti – 25 April 1943, in Moscow) was a Soviet and Russian theatre director, writer, pedagogue, playwright, producer and theatre administrator, who founded the Moscow Art Theatre with his colleague, Konstantin Stanislavski, in 1898. Ivan Savvich Nikitin (Russian: Ива́н Са́ввич Ники́тин) (3 October 1824 [O.S. 21 September], Voronezh – 28 October 1861 [O.S. 16 October], Voronezh) was a Russian poet. The exact date when Wilhelm Wesenberg’s workshop in the Strubinsky house on the Fontanka River embankment received the name “Wesenberg and Co” is unknown. In December 1882, Heinrich Tolvanen became the owner of a workshop in this house and in 1884 he moved the Wesenberg and Co. photo studio to Makarov’s house on Voznesensky Prospekt. At the end of the 1870s, Ivan Grinberg’s workshop operated in Makarov’s house on Voznesensky Prospekt. In 1881, Greenberg moved the workshop to Nevsky Prospekt and over the next two years David Gershuni, Dmitry Zdobnov and Sergei Lyubimov worked in the workshop on Voznesensky. In September 1899, Heinrich Wesenberg became the owner of the workshop in Makarov’s house, and Heinrich Tolvanen opened a workshop on Vasilyevsky Island. In the early 1900s, Heinrich Wesenberg changed the name of the workshop. In July 1912, Lydia Rudneva became the new owner of the photo studio and in the documents received for ownership, the workshop was mentioned as “Wesenberg G.”
