In the life of Vasily Perov

The whole life

1865–1870
From satire to the drama of the “humiliated and insulted”
The canvases “Seeing Off the Dead” and “The Queue at the Fountain”, which won first prizes at the competitions of the Moscow Society of Art Lovers and the Society for the Encouragement of Artists, opened a new stage: from satirical subjects Perov moved to more dramatic ones, about the “humiliated and insulted”.
1866
Made an academician for “Troika” and “The Arrival of a Governess”
For the paintings “Troika” and “The Arrival of a Governess at a Merchant's House” — about the hard, humiliating condition of hired workers — Perov was awarded the title of academician; “Troika” was bought by P. M. Tretyakov.
1867
Five paintings at the 1867 World's Fair
Five of Perov's paintings were shown at the 1867 World's Fair: “Seeing Off the Dead”, “The First Rank”, “The Amateur”, “The Bachelor Guitarist” and “Troika”; T. Thoré-Bürger noted that he was Russian both in his choice of subjects and in his manner.

Organises the Moscow group of the Peredvizhniki
In 1869, together with Myasoedov, whose idea the Association of Travelling Art Exhibitions was, Perov organised the Moscow group of the Peredvizhniki; in 1870 he became one of the Association's founders and for seven years sat on its board.
