"Portrait of Mikhail Glinka at the time of his composition of the opera 'Ruslan and Ludmilla', c.1887" is a notable work by the distinguished Russian realist painter Ilya Efimovich Repin. The portrait captures Mikhail Ivanovich Glinka, often regarded as the fountainhead of Russian classical music, during a period of intense creativity when he was engaged in composing his opera "Ruslan and Ludmilla." Repin, renowned for his mastery in portraiture, adeptly conveys the composer's character and the fervor of his artistic process through his skillful use of color, composition, and brushwork.

The painting is significant not only as an artistic representation of one of Russia's most revered composers but also as a historical document that provides insight into the cultural milieu of 19th-century Russia. Glinka's opera, based on the poem by Alexander Pushkin, is a cornerstone of Russian operatic repertoire, and Repin's portrait is a fitting tribute to the composer's contribution to Russian arts. The work exemplifies Repin's ability to blend psychological depth with lifelike representation, a hallmark of his portraiture that has earned him a place among the most celebrated artists of his time.

The portrait is held in high esteem for its technical excellence and its embodiment of the spirit of Russian nationalism, which was a significant theme in both Glinka's and Repin's oeuvres. As a visual chronicle of Glinka's artistic endeavor, Repin's painting remains an invaluable piece of cultural heritage, reflecting the symbiosis between Russian music and fine arts during a pivotal era in the country's history.
