Repin’s artistic career was closely tied to the Peredvizhniki (Itinerants) movement — a group of Russian realist artists of the late 19th century. A dedication to truth in representation became a defining feature of Repin’s work. His paintings are remarkable for their expressive imagery, psychological depth, and technical mastery.
Among Repin’s most celebrated works are Barge Haulers on the Volga, Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan, and Religious Procession in the Kursk Province. His masterpieces have become enduring symbols of Russian cultural heritage and are housed in major national museums, including the Tretyakov Gallery and the Russian Museum.
