Color reproduction of an oil painting: a bearded man in dark clothing cradles a wounded man in a pale pink robe and cap who slumps backward onto an ornate red patterned carpet. The dim interior has a diamond-patterned wall, a carved column, and an overturned chest with red fabric at the left; a sword lies on the floor in the foreground.
Wide white border around the image; artist's signature in the lower right corner of the picture; no printed caption or title on the front; slight edge wear at top left.
No postmark. Soviet-era divided-back postcard printed in Moscow 1927 (Главлит № А—1903, 20.000 экз.; ГОЗНАК, Мытная 15), published by the State Tretyakov Gallery; reproduces Repin's "Ivan the Terrible and his son Ivan, 16 November 1581". White border on front; matte paper stock. Only handwriting is a vertical filing number "4.1.28" at center — no message or address.
