The paper considers the characteristics of the verse penned by the Russian poet Ksenia Nekrasova (1912–1958) that define the unique artistic world of her poetry. The scholars devote special attention to the role of the visual nature of her poems and the principal differences between ‘verbal painting’ and visual representations as such. In addition, the study analyzes the characteristic features of subjective organization and the personification devices that feature in Nekrasova’s texts as a form of man’s harmony with immediate environment. The study suggests that, along with the remarkable characteristics of her poetry, including a syncretic worldview, a spontaneity of poetics, and heteromorphic verse, Nekrasova’s oeuvre remains compelling due to the fact that words are predominantly a means, and not the subject of, depiction. Hence a common, though misguided, perception that her poems are ‘badly made’ and lack skill. Nekrasova’s poetic world is what we see, observe, and reflect upon.
