Abstract
This article presents, for the first time in scholarly discourse, the photographic portraits of Pyotr Efimovich Kulakov, an administratively exiled individual who settled in the Irkutsk Governorate at the end of the 19th century. Kulakov is recognized for his statistical and economic research on the indigenous peoples of Eastern Siberia. The photographs of Kulakov, discovered in the State Archive of the Russian Federation, were initially intended for inclusion in the dictionary «Figures of the Revolutionary Movement in Russia» as early as 1935. However, due to the dissolution of the All-Union Society of Political Prisoners and Exiled Settlers, which was responsible for preparing the publication, these photographs have remained unpublished to this day.
