Boldino

Under the section headed In later life is the sentence:

  • "In September 1892 Jews were again expelled from Moscow and Levitan left the city for Boldino."

The link for that place name suggests four possible locations. The page requires clarification; a template has been placed. -- Deborahjay (talk) 10:45, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Deborahjay: The linked source tries to clarify it like this:

Chekhov's apology, and they remained at odds until January 1895. The summer: Levitan stayed with Kuvshinniova in the Gorodok village by the Peksha River, not far from the Boldino railway station (near Vladimir). September: Jews were officially expelled from Moscow and its environs, and Levitan was ordered to leave the city for Boldino (from mid-September till mid-December).

So "Boldino" can either refer to Boldino (settlement), Vladimir Oblast or Boldino (village), Vladimir Oblast. Since the source mentions the railway, it's more likely that it refers to Boldino, the settlement, which is located on the railway. — Golden call me maybe? 10:51, 29 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
