Pavel Gavrilovich Vinogradov (November 18, 1854 - December 19, 1925) was a renowned Russian and British historian specializing in the study of the Middle Ages and a member of the British Academy. Vinogradov taught history at Moscow University, but his desire to expand educational opportunities led to a conflict with the authorities, forcing him to leave Russia.

After moving to England, Vinogradov made significant contributions to the study of the social and economic conditions of early England. In 1903, he became a professor of jurisprudence at Oxford University and remained in this position until his death in 1925. He was elected a member of the British Academy in 1905. He received honorary degrees from leading universities, including a Doctor of Civil Law degree from Oxford University in October 1902, in honor of the three-hundredth anniversary of the Bodleian Library, became a member of several foreign academies, and was appointed an honorary professor of history in Moscow.

After the death of F. W. Maitland, Vinogradov took the position of literary director of the Selden Society and held this position until 1920. During World War I, he provided significant assistance to the British Foreign Office on matters concerning relations with Russia. In 1917, Vinogradov was knighted, and in 1918, he and his children received British citizenship.

According to the eleventh edition of the Encyclopaedia Britannica published in 1911, Vinogradov's book "Villainage in England" (1892) is considered one of the most important works on the peasantry of the feudal era and the village community in England.

In 1925, Vinogradov traveled to Paris to receive an honorary degree but fell ill with pneumonia and passed away on December 19. He was buried at Holywell Cemetery near St. Cross Church. The inscription on his grave reads: "A grateful stranger to hospitable Britain."
