Tatyana Aleksandrovna Bakunina (Russian: Татья́на Алекса́ндровна Баку́нина; 1815–1871) was the sister of the Russian revolutionary Mikhail Bakunin and the lover of writer Ivan Turgenev. Bakunina's relationship with Turgenev, described by literary critics as the "Pryamukhino affair", is reflected in Turgenev's poem On the Road and several other works.
