EDITORS COMMENTS
The painting ""Alexander Pushkin at an examination in the Lyceum of Tsarskoye Selo on January 8,1815" by Ilya Yefimovich Repin captures a significant moment in the life of one of Russia's greatest literary figures. Painted in 1911, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 127x201 cm and is housed at the Institut of Russian Literature IRLI (Pushkin-House) in St Petersburg. In this scene, we see Alexander Pushkin, dressed in his uniform, seated at a table surrounded by priests and teachers who are examining him. The room is filled with an air of anticipation as young Pushkin engages with his examiners while holding a pen and paper. His youthful face reflects both concentration and determination. Repin's attention to detail is evident through the meticulously rendered furniture, inkwell, and other objects that adorn the room. The use of color adds depth to the composition, creating a sense of realism that brings the scene to life. This painting not only showcases Repin's artistic skill but also pays homage to Pushkin's intellectual prowess during his time at the Lyceum. It serves as a reminder of his immense talent which would later revolutionize Russian literature. As viewers gaze upon this artwork, they are transported back to that historic day in January 1815 when Pushkin sat for his examination – a pivotal moment that shaped his future as one of Russia's most celebrated poets and writers
