Follow me, Satan! 1891

"Follow me, Satan!" is a painting by Ilya Repin, a renowned Russian artist known for his realism and social commentary. Created in 1891, this artwork displays Repin’s masterful brushstrokes and bold use of color, capturing a dramatic scene. The solitary figure, standing on a rocky outcrop against a fiery sunset, evokes a sense of isolation and contemplation. The landscape, rendered in vibrant hues of gold and red, suggests both beauty and danger, perhaps reflecting the inner turmoil of the individual. The title hints at a moral dilemma, inviting viewers to ponder the figure's internal struggle and their own relationship with temptation.
