Seven photographs from the National Library of Georgia have joined the historical gallery, with links to their original library records.
The photographs include Kasparian and Lilienthal in Tbilisi in 1937, Pirtskhalava and Ragozin at the first USSR Team Championship in Leningrad in 1948, and Alexandria and Ioseliani in their 1981 Candidates match in Tbilisi. The Gufeld, Giorgadze and Korchnoi photographs are undated in the library records.
Each photograph credits its recorded owner, David Gurgenidze or Nana Alexandria. The named photographers are I. Trapido, M. Bagdasarian and Yuri Gurevich; the other records do not identify a photographer.
