"Peasant Boy" is a notable painting by the Russian artist Nikolai Petrovich Bogdanov-Belsky, who is renowned for his poignant depictions of rural life and the peasantry in late 19th and early 20th century Russia. Created in 1893, this work exemplifies Bogdanov-Belsky's commitment to realism and his deep empathy for the subjects he portrayed. The painting captures a young peasant boy, whose expression and demeanor reflect the innocence and simplicity of rural childhood, yet also hint at the hardships and resilience inherent in peasant life.

Bogdanov-Belsky was a student of the illustrious Russian painter Ilya Repin, and his works often reflect the influence of his mentor's dedication to social realism. "Peasant Boy" is no exception, as it meticulously details the boy's attire, the texture of his skin, and the rustic background, all of which contribute to a vivid and authentic representation of rural existence. The artist's use of light and shadow, combined with his skillful brushwork, brings a lifelike quality to the painting, making the boy's presence almost palpable to the viewer.

The painting is also significant for its cultural and historical context. During the time it was created, Russia was undergoing significant social and economic changes, with increasing attention being paid to the lives of the peasantry, who constituted the majority of the population. Bogdanov-Belsky's work provides a valuable visual document of this period, offering insights into the daily lives, struggles, and dignity of the rural poor.

"Peasant Boy" is housed in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, one of the most prestigious art museums in Russia, where it continues to be admired for its artistic merit and historical significance. Through this painting, Bogdanov-Belsky not only showcased his technical prowess but also contributed to the broader narrative of Russian social history, making "Peasant Boy" a significant piece in the canon of Russian art.
