Born in the illustrious city of Vitebsk, Solomon Yudovin (1892-1954) studied art under the great Yehudah Penn. Yudovin accompanied his uncle, S. An-sky, during the course of the later’s two-year ethnographic expedition through the Jewish Pale of Settlement. See Israel Museum Catalogue, The Jewish Art of Solomon Yudovin (1991).
