- Ilya Repin was born in 1844 in Ukraine and was a pioneer of the Naturalist realist movement that followed. His energy and talent brought him to the heights of society and his work on major events in history capsulate the narrative with power and insight. Repin's drawing skills were always remarkable from a youth, his mother was a teacher and encouraged his talents, he was apprenticed at an early age and evolved into one of the most revered artists of his day and is once again enjoying honor worldwide.

A great presentation. Ive never heard of this wonderful artist. Thank you for this post it's greatly appreciated !!!
A great video of the Master’s paintings! Have always admired Repin and am soo happy that you have compiled a video on his works!! 🙏Has inspired me to visit Moscow to see his paintings in Real Time !
Yes, I saw his artworks in Tretyakovs Gallery, Moscow Russia. And his works is incredible!
Liked, and subscribed. I literally stumbled upon Repin in 1997. I was on a protective security detail for a US Army official in St. Petersburg. I !had about 12 hours off, so I walked down Nevsky Prospect (I'm close on the spelling, I think, but just a wonderful metropolitan street) After I went by the Church of the Spilled Blood, a building I recognized from many a tourist book, I came up on the Russian Museum. I wanted to also see the Hermitage and the Winter Palace (boy, was I packing in the itinerary!) But the Russian Museum looked really intriguing on the outside, so I went in. At this time I had taken only an ancient history art class, and only knew that I really liked art from visiting art museums wherever I was in Europe. Anyway, I fell in love with Russian Art, but just was awestruck at Repin's painting of the meeting of the government body at 12:12. The painting took up much of the wall of a room, and the detail was just amazing. Each face had it's own unique expression. I imagined he did research on each and every one of them, and tried to reflect what they were in fact doing in that moment. I've never seen that kind of detail in paintings, even in the Louvre. I'm pretty sure several of the other paintings featured in this video were also at the Russian Museum. I think the Barge workers was also there. I was limited in time, and had to get to the Hermitage, which also contained tons of famous masterpieces. What a fantastic 12 hours off. I have since become much more familiar with Repin. Russian Realism is one of my favorite genres.
Great story, Thank you!
I'm astounded these videos don't have more attention. They certainly deserve it. Thank you for your faithful accounting of such great art: we could all do seeing a little more of it these days.
The details of his work is unbelievable. He is now one of my new favorites! Thank you so much for your work with these videos.
Look at the paintings of Kramskoy, Surikov, Polenov, Perov. They are contemporaries and comrades of Repin. You'll be stunned.
@@PeskadorDHomes Agreed. There was so much excellence in this gathering of painters, and I still learn so much from them. So happy that their works are better known now than decades ago...
My favorite artist and inpiration to do portraits. His portrait of Garshin is just incredible.
The light he gains in each and every work is astounding.
The crowds of people are exceptionally good.
Even those in the distance have shade and light. Fantastic compositions, something I can always learn from.
Wonderful video and many thanks for sharing.
I'm glad I grown up with Repin's paintings in almost every school book. 😊
Wonderful vedio and story tgat needs more visibility and understanding
The Great Artist...I love his works... I have one book about him great works... love from Tamilnadu South India....
I have been aware of Ilya Repin for a very long time. He is one artist every true painter should know. His brilliance will never be seen again. Sadly.
Thank you for sharing wonderful information about great master painters and keeping inspired !
❤
An unsung artistic genius. I hadn't known of him until now. Thank you
Thank you so much for introducing Repin to me. What a talent!
The best painter I have ever seen, his talent was so great, everything seems natural, his portraits never pose in an annoying way, always a different angle. All the preliminary studies are works of art in themselves. It's also nice to hear how he opposed modernism, fortunately he never had to experience what happened to art in the last century. A lost century for art and architecture, which is also reflected in the world, the wars and the bomb.

One of my instructors at the Art Student's League, NYC introduced me to Repin's work; I am forever thankful.
I'm happy to hear that somebody in NYC is still capable of teaching the heights of Western civilization.
My God what a talent and once again.... thanks much to the GLI. You guys outdo yourselves from video-log to video-log. The writing & narration superb, the content ranging from the sublime to mind-blowing.
Yet another spellbinding example of rare human artistic genius🖌️📈🚀
Many thanks.
What an absolutely great presentation of this gigantic artist. Thanks so much. (as a side note: i actually feel your passion for art in your voice). Regards
Thank you !
It's too bad that anglo-saxons have always prevented the spread of Russian art in the world. But no problem. The new world is on the way.
Have we? I am not sure the blame is to be laid entirely on our ethnic group, actually.
@@simonestreeter1518 When some etnic group counts themselves number 1, it's time to show it its real place.
Outstanding documentary ❤
I`ve seen with my own eyes his paintings on a Museum`s Palace Ajuda here in Lisbon at 2004. If I`m not mistake in data.
" Masterpieces of Russian Arts ", from museums of Moscow and S.Petersburgh,in route. I was delighted with that. It open my eyes to russian artists, amazing !
Oh my goodness, I feel like this is a (sadly) rare discovery for UA-cam. Thank you for introducing me to Repin, and for discussing the historical and political context of his works. I have subscribed.
Thank you !
Extraordinary work ! great videos, great Masters!
Its amazing people could get their name out, hustle and make connections back in the day. Its hard enough with all our connection today.
Thank you so much for making this video. I've heard of the name 'Repin' in passing but never really looked into his work. Your video on Ilya Repin has opened my eyes and for the first time I am in wonder and amazement at Ilya Repin's work. His art is truly magnificent, powerful and at the same time sensitive and expressive. I love his work. What excellent drawing skill Repin has!
I agree with Repin's view. I don't have much patience for what is termed as 'modern art' - many of which is lazy art. So-called artists who cannot draw or paint, or produce kitsch works. Repin is a true artist of the highest excellence. I am so glad to have seen this video. Thank you.
I have just learned that these lazy artists you mention unironically call their art 'post-skill' art. Risible.
Wonderful video - thank you for the high quality images and the intelligent commentary
Where’s the painting of the Baroness Vavara? One of his most compelling portraits? Chekhov too? Excellent video though!
Repin will return, we have many more of his works.
Thank you for introducing me/us to Repin. Admittedly, I'm so focused on European painting and its history that I rarely stray from the continent and venture beyond. I agree with some of the comments below with Repin's astounding handling of light and composition. What lessons we an learn! Looking forward to viewing more of these wonderful videos.
Repin the human printer. Legendary
❤
Excellent
Interesting sculpture back there at 13:15
Excellent video ‼️ extraordinary insight into the talent and life of this artist.
❤❤❤❤
Amazing artist!
Kramskoi, Repin, Serov...and the other teachers and students who'd followed a naturalist tradition in painting, are heroes who'd come into my life late...a friend of mine during Academy times had had to special order a volume with reproductions of Repin's paintings, and we'd all wondered at the images though none of us could read the Russian language commentary written in the volume. I'm constantly reminded that, though political life often separates us, the spirit of Art can heal divisions.
Il quadro di Repin raffigurante " I Battelieri del Volga" fu ispirato da un'opera analoga del pittore macchialiolo Telemaco Signorini vista da Repin nel suo soggiorno toscano. L'opera di Signorini si intitola "L' ALZAIA" e rappresenta operai che trascinano controcorrente sull'Arno una barca. Questo quadro di Signorini era stato disperso ed è stato ritrovato solo recentemente. È stato acquistato da un antiquario per una cifra considerevole.
Thank you for the added info, we really like the Italian Artists and plan on more for them, thanks.
thank you
Is there a longer video on this artist? I couldn’t find it on you site. Is this Serov?
Serov is coming soon, thanks.
Well said and well done!
Wonderful.
Excellent ❤
Awesome video, thanks for going to the effort and introducing me to this amazing artist.
Beautiful!
FANTASTIC .
It's actually fact that burlaks on Volga painting was inspired near Petersburg. And mean that in ending of 19 century it was taken a place close to capital of empire.
Repin was a genius. But we, russians, had a lot of extraordinary genius painters in XIX century. A lot.
Would you be willing to share a few names with this American?
@@simonestreeter1518 Kramskoy, Serov, Benua, Somov, Petrov-Vodkin, Vrubel, Geh, Makovsky, Kustodiev, Levitan, Polenov, Savrasov, Fedotov, Pukirev, and it is just beginning.
@@PeskadorDHomes Wow! Thanks for that!
@@simonestreeter1518 Surikov, Kuindji, Serebryakova, Korovin.
This was an amazing video. Your best yet! Although, all things being considered, I'm surprised you didn't mention Ukraine.
All things considered, I am not surprised. It would have been just another tedious tangent.
Absolutely breathtaking...
Wonderful video!
5:00 GYAAaaatt
Incredible.
He was a genius
Paint paint pain ain in i
Love his work, but I really dislike The Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks, which always felt like a political cartoon to me. It lacks the genuine honesty of most of his other work.
It does look a bit cartoonish to me too! I do not know the history or context of the painting, so I can't really judge. I intend to research it just now.
Repin was not Russian, but Ukrainian. He deeply loved his motherland, which was Ukraine. He cherished both culture and tradition alike throughout his entire life. I really like the channel and I greatly enjoyed the video, but it is rather sad to see such disinformation. It is by no means unusual, for the soviet heritage is the russification of all great artists, who were from other countries. Ukraine just has a special place in this, because it was involved in Russias imperialism long before the 20th century happened
My understanding is that at that time the Ukraine was a region of Russia, albeit with a somewhat different language. Like The Great Plains are in the United States. This is pre-Soviet, so you can't blame them.
Ukraine is everywhere, how tiresome, Ilya Repin was born at a time when your piece was part of the Russian Empire, read the memoirs of the artist "far and near“ Repin about Ukrainians, with whom he lived next to since childhood:
"Our yard seemed like a fair. People were talking loudly everywhere, mostly хохлы: their language seemed funny to me, and when several "fucked up"хохлов.Uspoke loudly and quickly, I almost did not understand anything. There were people from different villages: from Malinovka - it's close, and there were хохлы from Sheludkovka, from Mohnachy, from Grakov, from Korobochkina, Our Russians - from Bolshaya Babka and other villages..."
