"Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan on November 16, 1581" is a renowned historical painting by the Russian artist Ilya Repin, created between 1883 and 1885. The work is also known as "Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan" or under its Russian title, "Иван Грозный и его сын Иван". The painting depicts a harrowing scene from Russian history: Tsar Ivan IV, known as Ivan the Terrible, cradling his dying son, Tsarevich Ivan Ivanovich, whom he has just mortally wounded in a fit of rage. This moment is said to have occurred on November 16, 1581, and has become a symbol of the complexities of autocratic rule and the tragic consequences of unrestrained power.

Repin's work is a masterful example of historical painting, capturing not only the emotional intensity of the moment but also providing a commentary on the nature of power and its impact on the human condition. The artist's attention to detail and his use of color and light add to the dramatic effect of the scene. The painting is characterized by its psychological depth, with Ivan the Terrible's expression conveying a mix of horror, remorse, and madness, while his son's limp body and the blood-stained surroundings underscore the brutality of the act.

The painting is significant in the context of Russian art for its bold portrayal of a controversial subject from the nation's past. Repin, a prominent member of the Peredvizhniki (Wanderers) movement, was known for his social and moral engagement, and this work reflects his interest in exploring the darker aspects of human nature and power dynamics. "Ivan the Terrible and His Son Ivan on November 16, 1581" remains one of Repin's most famous and emotionally charged works, and it continues to be discussed and analyzed for its artistic, historical, and cultural significance. The painting is held in the collection of the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia, where it is displayed as a key piece of Russian national heritage.
