PIOUS WOMEN ON PILGRIMAGE (detail), 1878 (oil on canvas)
7215278 PIOUS WOMEN ON PILGRIMAGE (detail), 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 showcases a detailed section of the painting "PIOUS WOMEN ON PILGRIMAGE" by Ilya Efimovich Repin. Created in 1878, this oil on canvas artwork can be found at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia. The painting serves as a study for the larger piece titled "Religious Procession in Kursk Province". In Orthodox Russia, pilgrims embarked on spiritual journeys from one monastery or convent to another, seeking solace and praying before miraculous icons. This particular study depicts two women on their pilgrimage, carrying their modest belongings as they make their way towards their destination. The artist's skillful portrayal of these women within a vast landscape adds an imposing dimension to this sketch. Every realistic detail of their costumes and accessories is meticulously captured, further enhancing the presence of these figures. In the final painting, they will become part of a more archetypal group. The image captures not only the religious significance but also provides insight into traditional attire and customs during that era. The women are seen wearing headscarves and hats while carrying bags and walking sticks. Their clothing reflects the fashion trends prevalent in 19th-century Russia. This print allows viewers to appreciate both the artistic mastery of Repin's work and gain a glimpse into Russian history through its depiction of pilgrimage traditions and cultural elements from that time period.
