EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the stunning oil on canvas painting titled "Sophie Menter, 1887" by Ilya Efimovich Repin. The artwork is housed in the prestigious Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia. Painted in 1887, this masterpiece depicts Sophie Menter, a renowned German pianist who was a pupil of Franz Liszt. During the 1880s, Menter had close ties to the Russian musical sphere and achieved great success through her tours in Russia. She also participated in concerts organized by Mili Balakirev's "school of non-paying music" which welcomed all musicians. Additionally, she taught at the St Petersburg Conservatory. Repin created two portraits of Sophie Menter while he resided at his castle in Itter, Bavaria. This particular portrait captures her elegance and femininity with intricate costume design and delicate lace details. Adorned with exquisite jewelry items such as earrings and necklaces, she exudes grace and sophistication. The painting is complemented by a beautiful bouquet of flowers that adds vibrancy to the composition. The wildflowers symbolize natural beauty and evoke feelings of freshness and joy. Through this artwork, Repin not only portrays Sophie Menter's musical prowess but also celebrates her role as an influential figure within both German and Russian cultural circles during the late nineteenth century. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to appreciate Repin's artistic mastery while capturing a glimpse into the life of an accomplished musician from history.
