Vasily Ivanovich Surikov (24 January 1848–19 March 1916) was a Russian Realist history painter. Many of his works have become familiar to the general public through their use as illustrations.

He was born to an old Cossack family, descending from Don Cossacks that had settled in Siberia. His father was a Collegiate Registrar, a civil service rank that often served as postmasters.
