"Portrait of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy" is a renowned painting by the Russian realist artist Ilya Yefimovich Repin. Created in 1887, this work is one of the most famous portraits of the celebrated Russian novelist and thinker, Leo Tolstoy. The painting is a testament to Repin's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects and is a significant piece in the oeuvre of Russian portraiture.

The portrait depicts Tolstoy at the age of 58, in a moment of contemplative repose, reflecting the intellectual and moral gravitas of the writer. Repin's mastery of light and shadow is evident in the way he illuminates Tolstoy's features, highlighting his intense gaze and the rugged lines of his face, which convey the depth of his experiences and the strength of his convictions. The setting is informal, with Tolstoy dressed in simple peasant clothing, which he adopted in his later years as a symbol of his alignment with the common people and his rejection of his aristocratic background.

Repin, who was a friend of Tolstoy's, manages to convey a sense of intimacy in the portrait, suggesting a deep understanding of the writer's character. The artist's realist approach is balanced with a psychological insight that brings Tolstoy's personality to life on the canvas. The portrait is not only a representation of Tolstoy's physical appearance but also an embodiment of his philosophical and literary legacy.

The painting is held in high esteem both for its artistic merit and for its cultural significance, as it captures one of Russia's most influential literary figures. It remains an important work in the study of Russian art and literature, offering viewers a glimpse into the life and spirit of Leo Tolstoy as seen through the eyes of one of his contemporaries. The "Portrait of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy" by Ilya Repin is housed in the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, where it continues to draw the admiration of art enthusiasts and scholars alike.
