PIOUS WOMEN ON PILGRIMAGE, 1878 (oil on canvas)
7215276 PIOUS WOMEN ON PILGRIMAGE, 1878 (oil on canvas) by Repin, Ilya Efimovich (1844-1930); Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, Russia; (add.info.: Study for Religious Procession in Kursk Province
1878//Oil on canvas
In Orthodox Russia, pilgrims traveled from monastery to monastery or from convent to convent, to pray before their miraculous icons. This study shows two women, on their way to their destination, charged with their modest effects. The insertion of figures in a vast landscape as well as the profusion of realistic details of costumes and accessories give this sketch an imposing dimension. The painter gives these women a real presence, while, in the final painting, they will fit in a more archetypal way within a group.); Photo © Sylvain Collet

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time from Repin's renowned painting, "PIOUS WOMEN ON PILGRIMAGE, 1878". The oil on canvas artwork is housed in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia. The study serves as a preliminary sketch for the final piece titled "Religious Procession in Kursk Province". In Orthodox Russia during this era, devout pilgrims embarked on spiritual journeys between monasteries and convents to seek solace and pray before miraculous icons. This particular study showcases two women en route to their destination, carrying their modest belongings. The vast landscape surrounding them and the intricate details of their costumes and accessories add an imposing dimension to this sketch. Repin masterfully gives these women a tangible presence within the composition, although they will eventually become part of a more archetypal group in the final painting. Their faith shines through as they traverse the countryside with walking sticks by their side. The image evokes feelings of tradition and devotion intertwined with nature's beauty. It transports viewers back to 19th-century rural Russia, where believers found solace amidst green pastures and serene landscapes. Bridgeman Images has flawlessly captured this significant artwork from Fine Art Finder's collection, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate Repin's skillful portrayal of religious pilgrimage during that era.
