Ilya Yefimovich Repin (1844-1930). Russian Realistic painter and sculptor. After the October revolution, he was wrongly presented as part of the infamous art movement called Socialist Realism. He graduated from the Academy in St. Petersburg, and lived in Italy and France. After his return to Russia, he worked in Moscow, from 1882 again in St. Petersburg, and from 1900 in the Finnish Kuokkala. He was influenced by Impressionism, which he encountered while studying in Paris. In the long-term, his style was closest to Rembrandt and he never became an Impressionist. He painted mostly scenes from the lives of ordinary and poor people, but also depicted former elite and intelligentsia (the Imperial family or Tolstoy). Among his best-known images is Barge Haulers on the Volga, in which he captured the conditions and the hard work of Russian serfs. He did not want to have anything to do with the revolution of 1917, and he did not paint revolutionary themes at all. He died in 1930 in Finland (he never wanted to go back to Russia). The Finnish city of Kuokkala was renamed Rjepino during the Soviet occupation of Finland.
