Then the artist moved to the Vitebsk province, acquired the estate there. The artistic activity of those times in the biography of Ilya Repin is extremely fruitful. In addition to writing paintings, he at the Academy of Arts led the workshop. Repin's travels in Europe influenced the style of the artist.

The village in which Repin lived, after the October Revolution, found himself as part of Finland. There, Repin died in the year. Repin Repin's work is one of the few Russian artists of the age, in whose work the heroism of the Russian revolutionary movement found its expression. Repin was able to unusually sensitively and carefully see and depict on canvas the various sides of the Russian social reality of that time.

The ability to notice timid sprouts of a new phenomenon, or rather, even feel them, determine obscure, muddy, exciting, gloomy, at first glance, hidden changes in the overall course of events - all this was especially clearly affected in the line of the work of Repin, dedicated to the bloody Russian revolutionary movement. The first work on this topic is the mentioned sketch “On the Dirty Road”, written immediately upon returning from Paris.

In the year, the artist created the first version of the painting “The Arrest of the Propagandist”, which, in fact, is the witty reminiscence of the scene “The capture of Christ into custody” from the New Testament. Obviously, dissatisfied with something in the picture, Repin once again returned to the same topic. From for a year, he worked on a new option, more strict, restrained and expressive.

The picture is quite completed compositionally and technically. Repin was spoke after the appearance of in, his paintings “Burglaki on the Volga”, which caused many disputes, negative reviews from the Academy, but enthusiastically adopted by supporters of realistic art. One of the heights of the work of the master and Russian painting of the II half of the 19th century was the canvas “Cross in the Kursk province”, written by Repin from live observations from nature.

He saw the processions in his homeland, in Chuguev, in the year he traveled to the vicinity of Kursk, where every year in the summer and autumn the cross -country processions with the Kursk miraculous icon of the Mother of God were performed throughout Russia. After a long and hard work on the search for the necessary compositional and semantic solution, the development of images in sketches, Repin wrote a large multi -figure composition, showing a solemn procession of hundreds of people and titles, common people and “noble”, civilian and military, laity and clergy, imbued with general enthusiasm.

Pictuating the procession - a typical phenomenon of old Russia, the artist at the same time showed a wide and multifaceted picture of Russian life with all its contradictions and social contrasts, in all the wealth of folk types and characters. Observation and brilliant picturesque skill helped Repin to create a canvas that affects the vitality of figures, the variety of clothes, expressiveness of faces, poses, movements, gestures, and at the same time grandeur, colorfulness and splendor of the spectacle as a whole.

A person is impressionable, passionate, fond of, he was responsive to many burning problems of social life, became involved in the social and artistic thought of his time. In the year, the painting “Ivan the Terrible and his son Ivan was created on November 16,”, which marks the highest point of his creative burning and skill. Repin's work is distinguished by extraordinary fruitfulness, and he wrote many canvases at the same time.

One work has not yet been finished, as the other and the third was created. Cossacks write a letter to the Turkish sultan Ivan the Terrible and his son Ivan on November 16, a procession in the Kursk province Repin, an outstanding master of portrait art. His portraits of representatives of different classes - common people and aristocracy, intelligentsia and royal dignitaries - a kind of annals of the whole era of Russia in faces.

He was one of the artists enthusiastically responding to the idea of ​​the founder of the Tretyakov Gallery - P. Tretyakov about the creation of portraits of outstanding Russian people. Repin often portraited his loved ones. Portraits of the eldest daughter of Vera - “Dragonfly”, “Autumn Bouquet” and the daughter of Nadia - “In the Sun” are written with great warmth and grace.

High picturesque perfection is inherent in the picture "Rest". Imaging his wife, who fell asleep in an armchair, the artist created an amazingly harmonious female image.The historical legend about how the Cossacks - the free Cossacks, to the command of the Turkish Sultan of Mahmoud IV, voluntarily responded to respond to a daring letter, served as a powerful creative impulse for Repin, his childhood and youth in Ukraine and knew folk culture well.

As a result, Repin created a large significant work in which, with exceptional expression, the idea of ​​the freedom of the people, their independence, a proud Cossack character and its desperate spirit were disclosed. Cossacks, collectively composing the answer to the Turkish Sultan, are represented by a Repin by a strong unanimous fraternity in all their strength and cohesion.

A vigorous powerful brush created bright, colorful images of Cossacks, perfectly conveyed their infecting laughter, vigor and dare. In the year in the summer village of Kuokkal, on the Karelian Isthmus, Repin bought a manor, which he called the "penalties", where he finally moved in the year.

The dance of the Zaporizhzhya Cossacks ”, dedicated to the memory of his beloved composer M. Interesting facts from the life of the artist Ilya Repin created truly realistic canvases, which are still the gold fund of the picture galleries. Repin is called a mystical artist. Five inexplicable facts associated with the paintings of the painter are presented to your attention.

The first fact. It is known that due to constant overwork, the famous painter began to hurt, and then the right hand refused completely. For a while, Repin stopped creating and fell into depression. According to the mystical version, the artist’s hand ceased to act after he painted the picture “John the Terrible and his son Ivan” in the year. Mystics associate these two facts from the artist’s biography with the fact that the picture he had written was cursed.

Like, Repin reflected in the picture a non-existent historical event, and because of this was cursed. However, later Ilya Efimovich learned to write paintings with his left hand. Another mystical fact associated with this picture occurred with the icon painter Abram Balashov. When he saw Repin's canvas “John the Terrible and his son Ivan”, he attacked the picture and cut it with a knife.

After that, the icon painter was sent to a psychiatric hospital. Meanwhile, when this picture was put up in the Tretyakov Gallery, many of the spectators began to sob, the picture was introduced into a stupor, and hysterical seizures occurred with some. Skeptics associate these facts with the fact that the picture is very realistic. Even the blood, which is painted on the canvas, is perceived by the real one.

The third fact. All Repin’s players after writing the canvas died. Many of them are not their death. Fedor Tyutchev died immediately as soon as Repin began to write his portrait. Meanwhile, even absolutely healthy men died after they visited the players for the painting “Burlaki on the Volga”. The fourth fact. Inexplicable, but a fact. Repin's paintings influenced general political events in the country.

So, after the artist in the year painted the painting “The Grand Creation of the State Council”, the officials who were depicted on the canvas died during the first Russian revolution of the year. And as soon as Ilya Efimovich wrote a portrait of Prime Minister Stolypin, the model was shot in Kyiv. The fifth fact. Another mystical case that influenced the artist’s health happened to him in his hometown of Chuguev.

There he painted the picture "A man with a bad eye." The model for the portrait was a distant relative of Repin, Ivan Radov, a master of golden affairs. This man was known in the city with a sorcerer. After Ilya Efimovich wrote a portrait of Radov, he, not an old man, was still ill. I myself experienced the power of this person, moreover, twice. ” Bibliography of Repin I.
