Description
Nikolai Bokan and his two sons are pictured seated at a desk, preparing a memorandum. The purpose of the memorandum is unclear, although the date of the photo falls within the week prior to Konstantin Bokan’s death of starvation in June 1933.

In the few months prior to his death, he had been working on a collective farm where he was overworked and poorly fed. He had left the family home earlier in the spring of 1933. As his parents were struggling to provide for their large family during the famine, Konstantin was leaving the family home to take up work and residence at a collective farm. It is unclear whether he was asked to leave or whether he left of his own accord. Konstantin would have been around twenty-two years old at the time of his departure.
