Iliá Yefímovich Repin (clic aquí wiki), (ruso: Илья Ефимович Репин; Chuguev, Ucrania, 24 de julio^jul./ 5 de agosto de 1844^greg. - Kuokkala, Finlandia, 29 de septiembre de 1930) fue un destacado pintor y escultor ruso del movimiento artístico Peredvizhniki. Sus obras, enmarcadas en el realismo, contienen a menudo una gran profundidad psicológica y exhiben las tensiones del orden social existente. A finales de los años 20 comenzaron a publicarse en la URSS detallados trabajos sobre su obra y alrededor de diez años después fue puesto como ejemplo para ser imitado por los artistas del realismo socialista.

lya Yefimovich Repin (clic here Wiki) (Russian: Илья́ Ефи́мович Ре́пин, Ukrainian: Ілля Юхимович Рєпін, (5 August [O.S. 24 July] 1844, Chuguyev, Kharkov Governorate, Russian Empire – September 29, 1930, Kuokkala, Viipuri Province, Finland) was a leading Russian^[1] painter and sculptor of the Peredvizhniki artistic school. An important part of his work is dedicated to his native country, Ukraine.^[2] His realistic works often expressed great psychological depth and exposed the tensions within the existing social order. Beginning in the late 1920s, detailed works on him were published in the Soviet Union, where a Repin cult developed about a decade later, and where he was held up as a model "progressive" and "realist" to be imitated by "Socialist Realist" artists in the USSR.
