Portrait of Ivan Shishkin was painted by Ivan Kramskoi in 1873. The work is an oil on canvas measuring 112 by 80 centimeters and depicts the Russian landscape painter Ivan Shishkin. It was created during a period when both artists were active participants in the Russian realist movement and associated with the Peredvizhniki (Wanderers) group. The painting shows a full-length portrait of a bearded man standing in a sunlit meadow, dressed in outdoor attire suitable for fieldwork, including high boots, a broad-brimmed hat, and a coat.

He leans casually on a walking stick, holding a folded cloak and what appears to be a sketchbook or portfolio under his arm. The background is composed of wild grasses and flowers, with a dense, shadowed forest behind, rendered in naturalistic tones and illuminated by a clear sky. The light falls from the left, casting soft shadows and emphasizing the textures of the clothing and landscape. The painting is held in the collection of the Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, under inventory number 654.

Portrait of Ivan Shishkin has become one of the best-known images of the artist, reflecting the close professional and personal ties among Russian painters of the period. The work is frequently cited as a significant example of 19th-century Russian portraiture, and it has been exhibited widely as part of the Tretyakov Gallery’s permanent collection.
