Pyotr Alexandrovich Nilus (Podolia, February 21, 1869 – Paris, May 23, 1943) was a Russian impressionist painter and writer. In 1920 he emigrated to Paris where he worked until his death in 1943. Pyotr Nilus was friend with Aleksandr Kuprin and Ivan Bunin. For the first years in Paris they lived in the same house. They led an intensive correspondence; more than one hundred letters of Pyotr Nilus to Bunin were published.
