Zinaida Pozdnyakova (1940–2023) was a modernist painter whose works are held in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. Her art is characterized by quick landscape sketches in the classical style of the French academic tradition. Many of these works were created during trips commissioned by the Russian Artists’ Union under the Communist regime.
She immigrated to Israel in 1991 but struggled to establish herself as an artist and gradually became reclusive. Her paintings are part of the collections of the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow and the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, and they were included in the Soviet Watercolors book published in 1980
