Bakhmeteff Archive

The Bakhmeteff Archive is a collection of historical documents, letters, photographs, and records related to the Russian émigré community, especially from those who fled Russia after the 1917 Revolution. It was assembled by Nicholas Bakhmeteff, a Russian diplomat and scholar. The archive provides valuable insights into the political, social, and cultural aspects of Russian émigré life in the 20th century, serving as an important resource for researchers studying Russian history, exile communities, and global diplomatic relations. It is maintained by the University at Albany, State University of New York.
