Portrait of Ivan Shishkin was painted by Ivan Kramskoi in 1880, depicting the renowned Russian landscape painter Ivan Shishkin. Created in oil on canvas, the work measures 115.5 by 83.5 cm and dates from a period when both artists were prominent figures in the Russian art world. The portrait was completed during the mature phase of Kramskoi's career, a time when he was known for his psychologically nuanced depictions of leading cultural figures. The painting presents Shishkin standing against a plain, neutral background, his hands in his pockets and his gaze directed outward.

He is shown with a full beard and unruly hair, dressed in dark clothing with a gold watch chain visible at his waist. The composition is direct and unembellished, focusing attention on the sitter’s face and posture. Kramskoi employs a restrained palette, with subtle gradations of light and shadow to model the features and create a sense of presence and introspection. The work is held in the collection of the Russian Museum in Saint Petersburg, where it is catalogued under inventory number Ж-2992.

Portrait of Ivan Shishkin is recognized as a significant example of Russian portraiture of the late nineteenth century, reflecting the close professional and personal association between Kramskoi and Shishkin. The painting has been widely exhibited and reproduced, and remains an important document of the Russian realist tradition.
