"Portrait of the Artist Nikolai Kuznetsov" is a painting by the renowned Russian artist Viktor Vasnetsov, created in 1893. This work is a significant example of portraiture from the Peredvizhniki (Wanderers) movement, a group of Russian realist artists who formed an artists' cooperative in protest of academic restrictions. The subject of the portrait, Nikolai Kuznetsov (1850–1929), was himself an accomplished painter and a contemporary of Vasnetsov.

The portrait is notable for its insightful depiction of Kuznetsov, capturing not only his physical likeness but also a sense of his personality and the intellectual atmosphere of the time. Vasnetsov's use of color, light, and composition reflects the influence of the Itinerants' ethos, which emphasized the social and moral dimension of art. The painting showcases Vasnetsov's skill in rendering textures and details, as well as his ability to convey the inner life of his subjects.

Viktor Vasnetsov (1848–1926) was a pivotal figure in Russian art, bridging the gap between traditional icon painting and modernist movements. His work often drew on historical and mythological themes, and he is perhaps best known for his contributions to the revival of interest in Russian fairy tales and folklore. In "Portrait of the Artist Nikolai Kuznetsov," however, Vasnetsov turns his attention to the realist genre, offering a window into the world of Russian cultural and intellectual elites at the end of the 19th century.

The painting is held in a public collection, allowing for its continued study and appreciation. It remains an important work within Vasnetsov's oeuvre and a testament to the rich tradition of Russian portraiture. Through this intimate portrayal of Kuznetsov, Vasnetsov not only immortalized his fellow artist but also contributed to the broader narrative of Russian art history.
