So far as I can see, there is only one image that exists online of this man, at holyunia.blogspot.com.

If anyone has any other pictures or information on this man aside from the limited information available on the web, please get in touch. I'm doing some research, because I have an interest in famous people from Solovki.

Otsheylnik,

I was doing a Google search on Bishop Meletiev and this thread came up among the results. I realize that it's been a little over 2 years since you started this thread and you may have found more pictures of Bishop Meletiev, but here is what is readily available online:

Photo 1 [catholichurch.ru]
Photo 2 [ic.pics.livejournal.com] taken from this booklet [all-decoded.livejournal.com].
At Fatima [ic.pics.livejournal.com]

I have two more images of Bishop Meletiev that I scanned from the following books:
Russia Will Be Converted (1950 edition) by John M. Haffert (a close-up shot of his celebrating Divine Liturgy at Fatima)
Shrines To Our Lady Around The World by Zsolt Aradi (a nice photo of him at Fatima, seated and wearing a mandyas)

Both books are out of print. If you would like the scanned images, send me a PM with your email and I will send them to you.

Besides The Holy Unia article [holyunia.blogspot.com], there are the following biographies online:
ROCOR Studies biography [rocorstudies.org]
Wikipedia article in Russian [ru.wikipedia.org]

ROCOR Studies article on St. Elias the Prophet Ukrainian Catholic Church's website [sainteliaschurch.blogspot.com] with added photo of younger Bishop Meletiev.

More photos of Bishop Meletiev have been posted: link [vk.com] .
