For more Repin paintings, many of which seem to have a religious or Ukrainian folk theme, see http://www.abcgallery.com/R/repin/repin.html
including perhaps my favorite, "The Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks to Sultan Mahmoud IV."

Hint: they don't look like they are being as diplomatic as +Benedict.

Thanks for the link, but ACK! to the pop-up ads with that page. My pop-up blocker didn't even catch them.

"The Reply of the Zaporozhian Cossacks to Sultan Mahmoud IV."

I've always gotten a kick out of that painting too!
