In the 1900s—1910s she extensively travelled around Europe and also worked as a book illustrator.[2]
Since 1934, she worked as a professor in the Leningrad Institute of Painting, Architecture, and Sculpture. Ostroumova-Lebedeva survived the Siege of Leningrad,[3] but sometime after that became blind. She died in 1955 in Leningrad.[1]
The main topic of her graphic works, both woodcuts and watercolors, were cityscapes of Saint Petersburg. She was also interested in European cityscapes, resulting from her travels in Europe.[1]
