Life

Schelaputin came from a wealthy old-believing Moscow merchant family. He received a very good home education and became enthusiastic about art and music from an early age. He learned to play the violin with the professor of the Moscow Conservatory Juli Gustawowitsch Gerber .

In 1869, Schelaputin acquired the Pokrovskoje-Fili estate from Emmanuil Dmitrijewitsch Naryschkin , and he released the park and forest for public use. Here he built a home for 20 terminally ill. Together with his relative Ivan Ivanovich Karsinkin (1822–1881), Schelaputin founded the Balaschinskaja- Manufaktur- Gesellschaft for the production of cotton yarns and fabrics in 1874, which at the end of the 19th century was one of the 100 most important companies in European Russia and one of the 6 most important companies in the Moscow Oblast belonged to. At the manufactory he founded a nursing home for 120 aged workers and orphans. He organized the Council of the Middle Ranks Society in Moscow. As a member of the First Moscow Society for Sobriety , in 1896 he organized the Society's Rogozhskoye department in his house on 1st Rogozhskaya Street and founded two teahouses at his own expense, in which reading rooms were furnished with a library and a book store.

In 1886 Schelaputin took over the Theater am Theaterplatz , which Mikhail Walentinowitsch Lentowski had been renting since 1882 and which had been expanded by the architect Bernhard Freudenberg . In 1898 it was rented by the state for the Imperial New Theater, which was closed in 1907. There were also performances of the Simin Opera Theater . From 1909 the house was used by the Neslobin Theater.

Shelaputin had three sons who died young. Boris (1871–1913) associated with actors from the Moscow Art Theater and wrote poetry . Grigori (1872–1898) was artistically talented and friends with Mikhail Wassiljewitsch Nesterow . Anatoly (1875–1906) was a talented musician with perfect pitch , and Rimsky-Korsakov dedicated a piano piece to him . In memory of his sons and relatives, Schelaputin built the Alexandra Petrovna Schelaputina advanced training institute for gynecologists for the Lomonosov University in Moscow (1896), the Grigori Schelaputin boys' high school (1901), the Moscow trade school on Miusskaya Ploshchad ( 1903rd Ploshchad) at his own expense , Architect PI Klein , engineer II Rerberg ), the Grigori Schelaputin boys 'trade school and girls' trade school on Kaluschskaja Uliza (1904, architect PI Klein) and the Anatoli Schelaputin Realschule and the Institute for Education (1911), which was built in 1912 after Schelaputin was named. In memory of his son Boris, who died in 1913, Shelaputin offered the Ministry of Education 500,000 rubles and a large piece of land on his Pokrovskoye-Fili estate for the construction of a teachers' college and a craft school with workshops, but the project was not implemented. He took over the cost of setting up the Hellenistic Art Hall in the Museum of Fine Arts and was a member of the relevant committee. He also generously supported the construction and operation of the Moscow University observatory . He founded a church for the Alexander Gymnasium in Yalta .

In 1913 he went to Friborg for therapeutic treatment. When he died there in 1914 before the start of the First World War , it was difficult to get him to his homeland. He was buried in the Rogozhskoye cemetery .
