“Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, as a larger-than-life personality, possesses the astonishing quality of creating his own special mood in the people around him... For me, Lev Nikolayevich’s spiritual atmosphere was always quite overwhelming, captivating. It was as if I were hypnotized in his company, and I could do nothing but submit to his will. In his presence, any position that he put forward seemed to me indisputable.”

Ilya Repin. Far and Near.
