He penned more than 200 scholarly publications, including articles, lectures, reviews. [2]
Early life

[1] He completed his student thesis in collaboration with Yegor Redin on the topic of the painting of the Saint Sophia Cathedral. It was published in Saint Petersburg in 1889.

After graduation in 1888, Dmitry Aynalov was assigned to the Saint Petersburg State University. For two years he was preparing to become a full professor in the field of art theory and art history. He accepted the position of an assistant professor at the Kazan University. In 1890-1903 he taught art history of the Classical antiquity and Kievan Rus' at that university's Department of Art Theory and Art History. He visited Italy in order to collect material for his dissertation, entitled The Hellenistic Foundations of the Byzantine Art.
