Due to the relatively small number of generalizing results of the study, considering a parallel comparative analysis of the work of the Soviet poetess Maria Sergeevna Petrovykh with her predecessors, the research on that problem is relevant and practical. This article discusses the images of Muse, a favorite lyrical object of admiration for poets, in the eponymous poems Muse by Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin, Anna Andreevna Akhmatova and Maria Sergeyevna Petrovykh. In the process of clarifying and analyzing the problem of the situation, the following operations are carried out: 1) an indication of the poetic techniques used by the authors; 2) the definition of the image of the Muse of each poet in his poem; 3) a comparison of the similarities and differences of these common and eternal artistic portraits depicted by three prominent poets.
