Ilja Repin: tunnettu ja tuntematon / Ilja Repin: Known and Unknown

Helsinki: 1998. Pb. This catalogue of an exhibition at a Helsinki gallery publishes some of Repin’s earliest works and some of his latest. It also has variety of subject: there are examples of most genres the greatest Russian painter of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century worked in: portraiture and history painting, the latter often based on études on Ukrainian and Cossack life. Both the range and the unfamiliarity of the material—all works are from Ukrainian collections—make this an important source on a major painter. 72 p., 8 1/4 x 11 1/2 ins., 52 color illus., ENGLISH and Finnish.
