"Portrait of Poliksena Stepanovna Stasova (1839-1918), Wife of D.V. Stasov" is a notable oil painting by the eminent Russian realist painter Ilya Efimovich Repin, created in 1879. The artwork is a representation of Poliksena Stepanovna Stasova, the spouse of the influential Russian critic and historian Dmitry Vasilievich Stasov. Repin, renowned for his masterful portraiture that often captured the intellectual and cultural elite of his time, presents Poliksena Stasova with a dignified elegance that is characteristic of his portraiture style.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical context. Poliksena Stasova was a member of the Stasov family, which played a prominent role in the cultural life of Russia during the 19th century. The Stasovs were known for their support of the arts and their association with key figures in Russian music, literature, and visual arts. Repin's portrait thus serves as a historical document, immortalizing the visage of a woman who was part of a vibrant intellectual milieu.

In the portrait, Repin's skillful use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the textures of fabric and the subtleties of human expression, are evident. The artwork reflects the transitional period in Russian art, where the influence of European academic styles began to give way to a more distinctly Russian aesthetic that sought to capture the essence of the subject's character and social position.

The "Portrait of Poliksena Stepanovna Stasova" is held in high regard for its contribution to the genre of portraiture and for its encapsulation of a significant period in Russian cultural history. It remains an important work within Repin's oeuvre and continues to be studied and admired for its technical prowess and its insightful depiction of a key figure in the cultural landscape of 19th-century Russia.
