Alexei Stepanovich Stepanov

Alexei Stepanovich Stepanov (Russian: Алексей Степанович Степанов) was a distinguished Russian genre painter, illustrator, and art teacher born on May 6, 1858, in Simferopol and passed away on October 5, 1923, in Moscow. Stepanov's early life was marked by tragedy; he lost both parents by the age of five and was subsequently raised in a Moscow orphanage for children of military families. His formal education at the Konstantin Surveying Institute was followed by auditing classes at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, where he was influenced by prominent artists of the time​​.

Stepanov's art career flourished when he began exhibiting with the Peredvizhniki, a group of realist artists, and later helped found the Union of Russian Artists. His works often depict serene rural scenes and everyday peasant life, resonating with a mood of profound emotional depth. Notable works include "Moose Herd," acquired by Pavel Tretyakov, and "Morning Greetings," which earned him the title of Academician from the Imperial Academy of Arts. His work "The Swing" was notably acquired by the Carnegie Museums of Pittsburgh later in his career​.

For those interested in the Russian art movement and genre painting, Stepanov's contributions are invaluable. His works can be viewed in major collections such as the State Tretyakov Gallery.
