Surikova, created his own methodology for teaching the composition. Evgeny Kobytev served in the 8th battery of the 3rd division of the Civil Region. Kobytev adjoined them several times, but behind the wounded leg lagged behind. With another young soldier, he was ambushed and, together with 60 thousand prisoners, ended up in a concentration camp in the city of Khorol, Poltava region.

From 90 to thousand people died here. It was a meter depth of a clay quarry at a brick factory, surrounded by a fence with barbed wire and with viewing towers in the corners. There were not even huts with bunks, slept on the ground. Some managed to pick out a niche in the slopes of the quarry, the rest are muck in the rain or snow. Jews and Communists were scored or expelled to death with dogs.

Kobytev morally survived the determination to capture and show people the monstrous reality of the concentration camp and the essence of fascism itself. In a certain sense, the notebook helped with physical survival, in which he made sketches and recorded future stories. During the searches, the Germans learned that he was an artist and began to “order” their portraits, for which they gave something from food or some kind of indulgence.

Eugene painted them in a style, which himself called the “death of photography”, and then the stressed hatred of tormentors splashed out 15 years after the escape, in the beginning of the X. This notebook and a piece of barbed wire cut off during the escape, E. Kobytev kept the rest of his life. Natalia Trigaleva, art critic.
