Elena Eskova was born in 1961 in the city of Kursk. In 1984 she graduated from the Art and Graphics Faculty of the State Pedagogical Institute in Kursk. After that she worked at a publishing complex that was also called Kursk.
Here are several of her illustrations for the novel The Master and Margarita—in my view, quite interesting. Apparently the drawings were scanned from a book—or perhaps from an album.

This is probably the title page

“Never talk to strangers”

Ivanushka arrives at MASSOLIT carrying a candle and an icon

A hungover Stepa Likhodeev finds Woland’s gang in his apartment

Pontius Pilate

Here I confess I’m at a loss. Which scene is this?

Behemoth the cat, in human guise, with a Primus stove under his arm

The execution of Yeshua

Pilate and Banga

Ivan and the Master in Stravinsky’s clinic

An empty suit

Judas and Niza (for some reason with a halo)

Remember Yeshua and Pilate’s discussion about a life hanging by a thread—and who hung it there?

The killing of Judas. Niza—like some jine of hero—disappears into the sunset

Ladies’ dress shop at the black‑magic séance

The Master greets Margarita with yellow flowers

Azazello and Margarita in Alexander Garden

After the ball, by candlelight

The killing of Baron Meigel

Margarita’s flight: invisible and free!

Petitioners at Satan’s ball

Margarita and Behemoth. Or maybe it’s Hella after all?

A commotion at Torgsin shop

Attempt to arrest the whole gang

Levi and Woland on a rooftop as the shadow of a sword falls across it

The last flight

Behemoth and the ladies

And to conclude
