Short Description
Yury Pavlovich Annenkov (Russian: Юрий Павлович Анненков also known as Georges Annenkov); 23 July [O.S. 11 July 1889] 1889 in Petropavlovsk, Akmolinsk Oblast, Russian Empire – 12 July 1974 in Paris, France), was a Russian artist mostly known for his book illustrations and portraits. He also worked in theatre and cinema (design). A member of Mir Iskusstva.

In his essay "On Synthetism" (1922), Yevgeny Zamyatin writes that "[Annenkov] has a keen awareness of the extraordinary rush and dynamism of our epoch. His sense of time is developed to the hundredth of a second. He has the knack--characteristic of Synthetism--of giving only the synthetic essence of things."
