People of the whole Russian literary world of those years had visited the salon. "One might meet luminaries of literature of that time in the small but finely decorated living room of the Maykovs once a week, in the evening; many came with manuscripts and read works written by them" (D. V. Grigorovich). Aesthetic interests - literature, theatre, music, painting dominated the salon and manuscript journals were published.
