I'm especially interested in the Peredvizjniki and Repin in special, but any general introductions and theory about Realism would be appreciated.

Bonus points for good stuff about French and Belgian Realism.

Btw: does anyone know of an actual decent book that explains/compares the theories of romanticism, realism, impressionism and expressionism? Or at least gives me an introduction to the thinking behind them?

To be clear, i'm interested in art theory, not in painting myself.

What do you need art theory writings on Realism for? It's probably the artistic paradigm that requires the least theoretical background.

Literature is probably better than art theory books anyway. Like the subject of that painting, Tolstoy. Poetics is good too, as well as philosophy.
