"Vladimir Vasilievich Stasov in a dacha in Starozhilovka village, near Parlogovo (St. Petersburg)" is a portrait by the renowned Russian realist painter Ilya Efimovich Repin. The painting captures the influential Russian art critic Vladimir Stasov (1824–1906), who played a pivotal role in the development of Russian art and music during the 19th century. Stasov was a prominent figure in the Russian cultural scene, known for his advocacy of nationalistic themes in the arts and for his support of the group of composers known as "The Five."

The portrait is notable for its relaxed and informal depiction of Stasov, a departure from the more formal portraits of the time. Repin, who was a master of psychological characterisation in his portraits, presents Stasov in a natural setting, possibly at his dacha, which was a common retreat for intellectuals and artists during the summer months. The dacha setting is significant as it reflects the importance of the countryside as a place of inspiration and relaxation for Russian cultural figures.

In the painting, Stasov is portrayed in a contemplative mood, surrounded by the tranquility of nature, which underscores his connection to Russian cultural identity and the landscape. Repin's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the details of Stasov's appearance and surroundings, contribute to the lifelike quality of the work. The portrait is a testament to the friendship and mutual respect between the artist and the critic, and it remains an important historical document of Russian cultural history.

This work is part of Repin's extensive oeuvre, which includes numerous portraits of prominent Russian personalities of his time. Repin's ability to capture the essence of his subjects has cemented his reputation as one of the foremost portraitists of the Russian realist school. The painting of Vladimir Vasilievich Stasov is held in high regard for its artistic merit and for its representation of a key figure in the Russian art world of the late 19th century.
