Classify Russian poet Alexander Blok

[Corvus]

I think he is atypical looking for a Russian:

[aherne]

Looks like a certified Jew. Surname is Jewish also... Apparently, his father was a "Polish" law professor. Given his mother was Russian, this look is impossible unless his father descends from conversos...

Outside Levant, can pass MARGINALLY in Italy (due to Syrian influence in S Italy dating to Roman times). Looks prototype Jew (beady eyes, 6 shaped nose, fat lower lip, thick reddish brown hair, semitic ears)...

East Med+minor Nordid

LOL at the "Jew" comments. All contemporaries noted that he had a very noble Aryan appearance. He was 1/4 German (ancestry from Mecklenburg) and 3/4 Russian (plus quite anti-Semitic).

[Austrvegr]

Surname is Jewish also...

So this guy is Jewish too...

The guys got a Jewfro.

Plenty of Jewish aristocrats.

[Sarmatian]

He is pred East Nordid with strong dinaromorphic tendencies. He does look like Russian/Jewish mix and most likely was.

[Austrvegr]

Plenty of Jewish aristocrats.

Not in Russia.

He is pred East Nordid with strong dinaromorphic tendencies. He does look like Russian/Jewish mix and most likely was.

You are welcome to find at least 1 mention of Blok's Jewish ancestry.

Blok’s wife about his looks:

"Расист" мог бы с удовольствием посмотреть на Блока -- он прекрасно воплощал образ светлокудрого, голубоглазого, стройного, героического арийца.

“Racist” would have looked at Blok with pleasure – he excellently embodied the image of a blond, blue-eyed, slender, heroic Aryan.

They are almost all of the nobility of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and have only accidental relation to Russia.

He was even strong supporter of the Russian racial hygiene movement and a fierce antisemite :icon_lol:

True but Jews were restricted to the Pale of Settlement then. I agree Russian Jewish aristocracy is rare compared to say Austro-Hungarian though. The guy does look Jewish though

[Smeagol]

Looks Jewish. East Nordic + Armenoid.

[Sharkeatpeople]

[kvarc]

except for the peculiar wavy hair, he looks very Russian
