During the wars of 1904–1916, he became known as a war artist ("batalist"). Afterwards, his reputation has become controversial. In the Soviet Union, he was known for paintings that glorified the October Revolution. However, in the West and in Russia after the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he has become known for harshly critical imagery of the aftermath of the Revolution.
