Smion Fedorovich Shchedrin (1745-1804) graduated from the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg with a gold medal in 1767. After studying abroad, he returned to his homeland to become a landscape professor at the Academy and painter to the Imperial court of Catherine the Great. In 1799 he took charge of the newly established class of landscape printmaking at the Academy. He continued as a court painter to Emperor Paul I, becoming known for his views of Imperial palaces and parks of Tsarskoe Selo, Gatchina and Pavlovsk.
Ivan Dmitrievich Telegine (dates unknown) studied from 1785 to 1800 at the Academy of Fine Arts and was engraver of St. Petersburg palaces and environs.
