“I’m the same old way that I always was, relentlessly addicted to certain ideas, and to my dying day searching for inexhaustible depths in the limitless enchantments of art. There was much suffering, so much. I must confess that there were great joys as well, delights worth dying for. But I am still alive, and, although I teeter about and must lean on my table, I do not plan to give it up completely. I hope…” (Ilya Repin to Ilya Ostroukhov. 6 June 1924)
