Sergei Aleksandrovich Zalshupin

Zalshupin was born in Saint Petersburg as a son of Alexander Semenovich Zalshupin (born 1867- died 1929), publisher of the Энциклопедия банковского дела (Encyclopedia of Banking) and the periodicals Русский экономист (Russian Economist)^[3] and Жизнь и суд (Life and Law Court).^[1][4] From 1915 up to 1918 he studied art at the Новая художественная мастерская (New Art Studio) under the painters Vasily Ivanovich Shukhaev (Василий Иванович Шухаев) and Alexandre Yevgenievich Jacovleff (Александр Евгеньевич Яковлев).^[1]

In 1921 Zalshupin emigrated to Berlin, where he worked for Russian émigré publications, providing portrait sketches and other illustrations especially to Спо́лох (Spolokh, Russian for Alarm bell).^[2] He took part in art exhibitions, such as the Exhibition of Original Drawings of Petrograd Bookplates (1923), and became a member of the board of the Berlin Haus der Kunst.^[1] In 1923, the Berlin publishing house Гамаюн (Gamayun)^[5] released an album of the artist's etchings, Portraits of Modern Russian Writers, in an edition of 100 copies, which included portraits of Alexander Blok, Andrei Bely, Maxim Gorky, Boris Pilnyak, Ivan Shmelev, and others. That same year, he illustrated the book Alice in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll, translated by Vladimir Nabokov.^[1]

In 1924, Zalshupin emigrated again, now to France where he lived in Paris. At the art Salon d'Automne (Autumn Salon) in Paris of 1924 and 1930 he presented his works under the pseudonym Serge Chubine.^[1][2]

He died in 1931 in Paris. Zalshupin's work can be found in Russia in the Pushkin Museum in Moscow.^[1]
