Ilya Efimovich Repin

Repin came to St. Petersburg Academy of Arts in 1864. He was a peasant's son who showed great potential as an artist, having learned to paint religious icons in his youth. His arrival in St Petersburg occurred at the same time as 'The Riot of Four­teen', a protest by fourteen artists who complained about the subject matter the Academy demanded students had to use for their diploma. These young artists believed that art should be as close to real life as possible, unlike the Academy who wanted mythological subjects. They therefore formed the Soci­ety of Peredvizhniky, and Repin would later become closely associated with some of the members of this society.

For his own diploma in 1871, Repin painted Raising of Jaims' Daughter, a work to outstanding that he was awarded a Gold Medal, as well as his diploma. His first work after graduation, Barge Haulers on the Volga gained him immediate recognition as an artist of great quality. Soon after, he left Rus­sia to travel in Italy and eventually to settle and work in Paris.

He returned to Russia in 1876 and then began the most fruitful and creative period of his life.
