"Portrait of the Poet Apollon Maikov" is an 1872 oil painting by the Russian artist Vasily Perov, a prominent figure in the Russian realist movement. The painting is a notable example of Perov's portraiture, in which he captured the likeness and character of Apollon Nikolayevich Maikov (1821–1897), a well-regarded Russian poet of the 19th century known for his classical style and themes drawn from ancient mythology and Russian history.

In this work, Perov presents Maikov in a moment of contemplative repose, reflecting the intellectual and emotional depth characteristic of the poet's literary output. The portrait is rendered with fine attention to detail, from the textures of Maikov's clothing to the nuanced expression on his face, suggesting a moment of introspection or creative thought. The use of lighting and shadow in the painting emphasizes the subject's features and adds to the overall mood of the composition.

Vasily Perov, born Vasily Grigorevich Vasiliev (1834–1882), was a key member of the Peredvizhniki (Wanderers or Itinerants), a group of Russian artists who sought to engage with social and moral issues through their art. Perov's work often addressed themes of social injustice and the human condition, and his portraits frequently conveyed the personality and social status of his subjects with empathy and insight.

The "Portrait of the Poet Apollon Maikov" is considered an important work in Perov's oeuvre, reflecting both the artist's skill as a portraitist and his engagement with the cultural milieu of his time. The painting is held in the collection of the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia, where it stands as a testament to the rich cultural exchange between the worlds of visual art and literature in 19th-century Russia.
