Vasily Perov1834–1882Трапеза
Sobre el cuadro
En palabras del museo — en ruso
Трапеза — кушанье и общее монастырское застолье. Одноименное произведение выдающегося мастера жанровой картины было воспринято современниками как своеобразный обличительный документ эпохи. Сюжет с изображением трапезы рассказывал о лицемерии монашества. Различные пороки человека — чревоугодие, корысть, гордыня, зависть — запечатлены на картине в образах служителей церкви, сидящих за столом, символично расположенным между изображениями просящей милостыню нищенки и распятого Христа. В окна льется яркий солнечный свет, который дает надежду на возможность духовного очищения. Русский музей. От иконы до современности. СПб. 2015. С . 176.

Mientras tanto, en la vida de Vasily Perov
La vida entera1863–1864
Paris: scenes of European street life
In Paris Perov painted scenes of European street life: “The Vendor of Statuettes”, “The Savoyard”, “The Organ-Grinder”, “Beggars on the Boulevard”, “Musicians and Bystanders”, “The Ragpickers”.
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.
1869–1870
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.
