The graduate of St. Petersburg Repin State Academic Institute of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture of the Russian Academy of Arts, Altai painter Ilbek Khairulinov became world famous as a master of the thematic picture. Equally proficient in brush and word, he created truthful and convincing portraits of his contemporaries. With the concise, sharp composition and the clarity of expressive means, his works are an example of genre synthesis, assimilation of artistic techniques, and the high degree of generalization. The author notes that the literary work is a special and far from being studied part of I. S. Khairulinov’s heritage.
