Zimnitsky was a participant in 2 wars and a witness to the revolution, positively perceived the regime change, after which he reached the apogee of his creativity. The family life of S.S. Zimnitsky developed dramatically, which largely determined the implementation of his creative abilities. S.S. Zimnitsky is presented for the first time not as an untouchable monument of bronze, but as a living person with not only merits, but also faults, while his greatness does not fade. For the first time, the characteristics of S.S. Zimnitsky’s personality traits, given by various people close to the scientist, are presented together. This allows us to understand and evaluate from a new perspective what a great personality with a unique charisma he was.
