There is one letter by the artist Dmitriĭ Stellet︠s︡kiĭ, and considerable correspondence of Chernysheva-Bezobrazova and of her relatives, including her parents and members of the Shcherbatov and Uvarov families. Most of the correspondence is from the periods of World War I, the Civil War, and the emigration (ca. 1914-1935). Chernysheva-Bezobrazova's manuscript memoirs deal with such topics as her family, cultural life in pre-revolutionary Moscow, the Civil War in the south, and the emigration in France. Printed materials include fliers from the Don region during the Civil War, and the program of V. M. Purishkevich's Narodno-Gosudarstvennai︠a︡ Partii︠a︡ (National State Party, 1919).
