Main artistic features.

1.In the composition of this painting, Repin makes use of the topography of the beach and the turn of the river bay, so that the eleven slender men are like a group of statues, which are shaped on a yellow, raised base, so that the painting has a grandiose and far-reaching tension, the background of the painting is dark and misty, the space is empty and strange, giving people a sense of melancholy, loneliness, and helplessness, which really penetrates into the depths of the slender man's heart, and is also a true portrayal of the painter's state of mind, which plays a great role in the embodiment of the purpose of the painting and the emotional set-off.

2.On the canvas, the artist has cleverly laid out the scenery of the Volga River, showing the procession of slender men in a long and narrow banner. The sun is scorching on the banks of the Volga River, the beach is barren, and the close-up view is only dotted with a few broken baskets buried in the sand, and the scenery is very bleak, and a team of slender men in tattered clothes are pulling the cargo ship, and the steps are so heavy that it seems that you can hear the echo of the oppressive and low "Volga boatmen's song".

3.The sky above the head is depicted in pale green, lavender, and dark brown throughout the painting, making the atmosphere appear bleak, so the composition, lines, brushwork, and other painting techniques of this painting are quite successful.

Description: On the scorched riverbank scorched by the scorching sun, a team of unkempt and ragged slender men dragged the cargo ship with heavy steps, struggling forward exhausted under the scorching sun.

They were young and old, all of them in tattered clothes and haggard faces. The leader was an old man with a gray beard, his eyes sunken, and his resolute face that revealed weathered wisdom, but his sad expression still showed his helplessness in the hard life.

The slender man who walked at the end lowered his head and lowered his hands, numbly moving forward with the procession, as if he had become accustomed to such a life of hard labor. There is also a more prominent image in the team, it is a teenager in the middle of the team, it can be seen that he has only started this kind of work not long ago, frowning is not very used to it, he straightened up his waist and wanted to loosen the tight rope on his shoulders with his hands, after all, he is young, and he is not willing to endure such suffering.

The rest of the slender men were hunched over with their heads bowed, as if they had no more strength left to show something more, and all that was left of them was poverty, hardship, and helplessness. In this painting, which reflects the suffering life of the slender man, it is not so much the struggle between man and nature as the struggle between man and the cruel and ruthless dark fate and society.

There are 11 slender men in the painting, roughly divided into three groups. Each image has been carefully scrutinized by Repin, and the characters have been sketched. They vary in age, experience, personality, physical strength, and their mental temperament.
