Known as an artist of the realistic school in painting, a battle painter and the author of a series of documentary sketches of the revolutionary events of 1917, the everyday life of war communism in 1918-1921.Ivan Alekseevich was born in Vilna (Vilnius) in the family of a priest Alexei Vladimirov (born 1830) and an Englishwoman Kate Vladimiroff (Waghorn). Father, at one time worked as a librarian at the Moscow English Club. Mother was a watercolorist.At the age of 12, Ivan was already working as a coal miner. He traveled a lot alone in England and Polissya. He received his artistic education at the Vilna Drawing School of Ivan Trutnev. He studied at the St. Petersburg cadet school, left the service due to illness. In 1891-1893 he studied at the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts, where he specialized with Bogdan Villevalde, Alexei Kivshenko and Franz Roubaud.He volunteered for the 210th Izhora Battalion of the Russian Army. In 1894 he attended the Military Infantry School.Every year he spent summers in the Caucasus in mountain villages, bringing from there material for paintings that were awarded large and small silver medals: "The Capture of the Turkish Redoubt", "Dressing Station during the Caucasian War". For the painting "Dressing station during the Caucasian War" in 1893 he received the title of class artist of the second degree, which gave him the opportunity to start independent work. In 1897, for the painting "The Battle of the Adyghes on the Malka River" he was awarded the title of class artist of the first degree.He was an art correspondent for the Niva magazine during the Russian-Japanese (1904-1905), Balkan (1912-1913) and World War I.Vladimirov owns copies and sketches of the remains of the painting of the X-XI centuries of the Sentinsky temple in the Teberdinsky gorge of Karachay-Cherkessia.Being an opponent of modernism in art, he offered his paintings for the exhibition of artists "World of Art", but was rejected as an outdated realist. Then he painted several paintings on Finnish subjects in the manner of the World of Art, and under a Finnish pseudonym he gave these paintings to the exhibition. He was accepted, received flattering words from Alexandre Benois, the paintings were sold.And only at the end of the exhibition, Vladimirov exposed the whole intrigue with a letter to the newspaper. The artist received a lot of sympathetic letters, even a postcard from Ilya Repin, congratulating Vladimirov on a successful modernist prank: "Dear Ivan Alekseevich! I hasten to greet you for your magnificent joke on impudent mazilki and pathetic pygmies who imagined themselves to be innovators of our native art. Your joke dealt a deadly blow to all the decadents and other muffins - the enemies of realism in painting."In the 1910s he lived with his wife and two daughters at his dacha on Morskaya Street. Now the territory of the former dacha of Vladimirov is part of the governor's dacha of the village of Komarovo.In 1917-1918, while working in the Petrograd police, he painted portraits of wanted criminals. He made a large series of documentary sketches of the events of 1917-1918 ("The Arrest of the Tsarist Generals" (1918), "Petrograd. Spring 1918" (1918), etc.).In 1921, he collaborated with the American Relief Administration (ARA), primarily with Frank Golder and Donald Ranshaw, as well as with the Youthful Christian Association (YMCA) - with Spurgeon Milton Keene and Ethan Theodore Colton. All four bought his drawings, which were then taken to the United States.During the Soviet-Finnish war, due to his age, he could not go to the front and, according to newspaper reports, he created the paintings "Surrender of the White Finns", "Entry of Soviet troops to Vyborg".During the Great Patriotic War, he was in besieged Leningrad, prepared posters, made sketches and sketches, painted pictures ("The Battle for Tikhvin", 1943; "Fight on the Streets of Berlin", 1946), kept a diary of the blockade.He died on December 14, 1947 in Leningrad at the age of 78.
