Jurgis Baltrušaitis (born in Paantvardziani in 1873 - died in Paris in 1944) was a Lithuanian poet, an art-historian and an art-theoretic, who wrote his literary works in Lithuanian and Russian.
He was also a Lithuanian diplomat, long time (1920-1938) served as the Lithuanian envoy in the USSR.

 JURGIS BALTRUSAITIS
Jurgis Baltrusaitis was a Russian-Lithuanian poet, one of the original founders of Russian Symbolism.
Stylistically, Baltrusaitis is a refined bard of mystical-metaphysical verse, somewhat akin to William Blake.
Baltrusaitis' and Bely's close professional collaboration went back to the founding of Vesy in 1904; both were members of the journal's editorial staff.

Jurgis Baltrusaitis is the author of eight books, among them Anamorphoses: Formations, Deformations, and The Quest for Isis.

Silence and the Inexpressible in the Poetry of Jurgis Baltrusaitis
In Jurgis Baltrusaitis' poetry we find a great abundance and variety of "muteness-silence" words and their derivatives.
The present paper is concerned with elucidating the notion of the inexpressible found in Baltrusaitis' verse as a way of transcending the limitations of words to elicit poetic vision.

 Three Text of Jurgis Baltrusaitis
Jurgis Baltrušaitis's Lithuanian text was formed in a completely different situation.
We would add: if the removal from the native language and culture is at the very least risky, then the ability to view them from another language and culture is most often useful because it emphasizes the specifics of "one's own element".
Such are the two texts of Jurgis Baltrušaitis in two national languages.

Plane anamorphs belong to a larger class of so-called 'direct' anamorphs that rely on unusual viewing angles, as opposed to 'indirect' anamorphs that require special mirrors or lenses to restore the image to its perceptually correct proportions.
Jurgis Baltrusaitis' book, Anamorphic Art (1977), describes the various types of anamorphisms and recounts a fascinating history, from the oldest known anamorph by Leonardo (in the Codex Atlanticus, 1483-1518) through their peak of popularity in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, right up to the modern era (see also Leeman, 1976).
The resulting picture is optimally viewed from a point corresponding to the position of the projector, taking account of any scaling.
