Ilya Repin's Ivan the Terrible and his Son Ivan has been vandalized not only once, but twice. The controversy over the death of Ivan the Terrible's son is still alive centuries after occurence. Ilya Repin's depiction of it shows Ivan deeply regretting what he did. All his emotions are conveyed through his terrified glare. His eyes are the painting's appeal.
