Although he held the position only until 1902, he achieved a great deal; Serge Diaghilev was his immediate assistant, and Wolkonsky entrusted him with the publication of the Annual of the Imperial Theatres in 1900. New names appeared in the theaters, such as painters Alexandre Benois, Konstantin Somov, and Léon Bakst. In this second part of his two-volume reminiscences he discusses his mother Princess Elisabeth Wolkonsky, his time at the Imperial Theatres, the Russian Revolution and its consequences, and the ruin of the Russia he loved.
