The article examines the conceptually significant image of the ideal «dreamed» girl in M.Yu. Lermontov's works. This image is understood as an artistic personification of the ideal of love. The image of the ideal girl is inextricably linked with the central themes of Lermontov's entire work and has a biographical conditionality. At the same time, autobiographism is understood as an author's natural tendency to consider the event of his life within the category of universally significant. The article traces the special artistic features of the image of the dreamed girl in Lermontov's entire work. Based on the component of “dreaminess”, there were analyzed female images in prose: the novel “Vadim”, “Princess Ligovskaya”, “Hero of our time”, and the tale “Ashik-Kerib”. The result of such an analysis is the selection of a special discourse of the Lermontov's “dreamed girl”, which has its own specifics and means of artistic embodiment.
