Repine likes to grasp her models in a natural attitude, such as rest, meditation, or sleep. The fall asleep of his wife Vera is subtly rendered here by the hand ready to slide from the arm of the chair. The refined garment is painted in a restrained harmony of browns, blacks and burgundy. This painting is the last he made of his wife: the deterioration of their relations led the couple to separate permanently at the end of the 1890s.); Photo © Sylvain Collet

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a detailed section of Ilya Efimovich Repin's painting titled "REST". Created in 1882, this oil on canvas artwork can be found at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia. Repin was known for his ability to depict his models in natural and intimate moments, such as rest or meditation. In this particular piece, he delicately portrays the peaceful slumber of his wife Vera. The hand gently resting on the arm of the chair suggests her imminent slide into deep sleep. Repin's attention to detail is evident in the refined garment depicted with a harmonious blend of browns, blacks, and burgundy tones. Interestingly, this painting marks the last portrayal he made of his wife before their relationship deteriorated leading them to separate permanently by the end of the 1890s. The photograph itself is expertly captured by Sylvain Collet from Bridgeman Images. It beautifully showcases not only Repin's artistic prowess but also highlights elements such as alliance, youthfulness, relaxation, and femininity. The image invites viewers to appreciate both the artistry behind Repin's work and its historical significance within Russian art during the late 19th century.
