unspecified
From the collection of Finnish National Gallery
Taiteilija Rafail S. Levitskin muotokuva is an unspecified by Ilya Repin, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This is a black-and-white portrait of a man with a thick beard and mustache. He’s wearing a dark coat and a white collar, sitting with one arm resting on a chair. His gaze is turned slightly away, and the background is plain, letting him stand out. The painting uses soft shading to show light and shadow on his face and clothes. The artist focused on his serious expression and the texture of his beard. Next, look up chiaroscuro to see how this lighting trick works in other art.
Ilya Yefimovich Repin (5 August 1844 – 29 September 1930) was a Ukrainian-born Russian painter.
