"Xenia Godunova and the False Dmitri" is a historical painting by Russian artist Klavdiy Vasilievich Lebedev, created in the late 19th or early 20th century. The artwork delves into a tumultuous period of Russian history known as the Time of Troubles, which was characterized by political chaos, famine, and the struggle for power following the death of Tsar Ivan IV (Ivan the Terrible).

The painting captures a dramatic and emotionally charged moment between Xenia Borisovna Godunova, the daughter of Tsar Boris Godunov, and the False Dmitri I, one of the several impostors who claimed to be Dmitri Ivanovich, the youngest son of Ivan the Terrible, who had died under mysterious circumstances. The False Dmitri I exploited the political instability to briefly become the Tsar of Russia from 1605 to 1606.

The painting is a testament to the artist's ability to convey deep historical narratives through his art, offering a window into the complex social and political dynamics of early 17th-century Russia.
