Ilya Repin's painting "Ivan the Terrible and his son Ivan on November 16, 1581" (another name "Ivan the Terrible kills his Son"), the most famous to us from school textbooks, was banned by Emperor Alexander III in 1885, and thus became the first picture to be censored in the Russian Empire. 130 years later, already in modern Russia, a group of historians and activists appealed to the Minister of Culture of the Russian Federation with a request to remove the canvas from the Tretyakov Gallery. Is there a causal relationship between the past and the present?
