1900 marked a second marriage for Ilya Repin. His betrothed was the admiral’s daughter, the writer Natalia Nordman-Severova, in whose name he acquired a mansion in the village of Kuokkala which he called Penates. At the same time an accident happened that was simply fatal for the painter - Repin’s right hand refused to work, so he had to retrain to paint a picture. Note that at this time Repin lived rather secluded, he did not visit his friends and did not participate in exhibitions, despite the fact that the estate of the artist was located in general not far from the capital. Note that Repin was destined to live in the "Pens" until the end of his days.

Description of Ilya Repin’s painting On the Sun
1900 marked a second marriage for Ilya Repin. His betrothed was the admiral’s daughter, the writer Natalia Nordman-Severova, in whose name he acquired a mansion in the village of Kuokkala which he called Penates.
At the same time an accident happened that was simply fatal for the painter - Repin’s right hand refused to work, so he had to retrain to paint a picture. Note that at this time Repin lived rather secluded, he did not visit his friends and did not participate in exhibitions, despite the fact that the estate of the artist was located in general not far from the capital.
Note that Repin was destined to live in the "Pens" until the end of his days. As a result of the turbulent events that followed, Finland seceded from Russia, which had now become Soviet.
The appearance of the portrait of Nadezhda Repina - the daughter of the great artist - also belongs to this period. The tone of the picture is unusually light and peaceful: a girl, walking in the park, decided to take shelter from the heat of the day under an umbrella.
She is dressed in the fashion of the last century: a white blouse, embellished with a brooch, and a skirt with a wide belt. She has a hat on her head. The woman’s face is extremely calm and serene, and this idyll can only be broken by a bumblebee that appears out of nowhere. Note that Repin until the end of his life remained a realist.
Despite the fact that he continued to write at the turn of the century, his work is no example of Impressionist and Symbolist experiments such as "Demon" Vrubel and "Poppies in Arzhantey" by C. Monet. However, this did not prevent Repin to create a psychologically very accurate and "live" paintings. This applies in full measure to the painting "In the Sun.
It seems that a few more moments - and we’ll feel the heat of the afternoon, feel the enticing smell of herbs and flowers, and somewhere nearby we hear the buzzing of the flying bumblebee to us.

The picture has something of this: people, lid, wear, portrait, woman, man, veil, child, two, recreation, exploration, facial expression, bonnet, cap, mammal.
Perhaps it’s a painting of a woman in a white dress holding a black umbrella and a black and white flower in her left hand.
