Ilya Repin and the World of Russian Art Tapa blanda - 1990

New York: Kilgore Galleries, 1921. First, limited to 3,000 copies. Hardbound. Good, ex-library with typical markings, slight damp stain along top edge.. Navy boards, [59], 13 bw plates. Contains a biography, a catalogue of his works, and 13 illustrations of his works.

His great talent established realism as the national painting style, and the reverence for his work was so strong among the general public that when one of his paintings was slashed, the desecration occasioned nationwide outrage. Yet because Stalinist Russia canonized him as precursor and exemplar for Socialist Realism, Repin's vibrant and masterly works have been largely ignored in the West.
