Lupanova Elizaveta Nikolaevna (1910-1973) – artist of figurine painting. Leningrad Porcelain Factory.
She was born in the town of Detskoye Selo (now Pushkin, formerly Tsarskoye Selo). Having quite good drawing abilities, she already knew from her school years in which direction she would receive professional education. In the late 1920s, she entered the ceramics department of the Leningrad Art and Industrial College. After receiving her diploma in 1931, she began her creative path as an artist in the Izobretatel artel. In 1932, she changed her place of work and for two years improved her artistic skills in the Household Commune of the Theater of Working Youth (“TRAM”). In 1937, fate linked Lupanova with the legendary Leningrad Porcelain Factory (LPF), where she painted porcelain products before the Great Patriotic War.
