Born in 1814 and passing away in 1876, he left an indelible mark on history with his revolutionary ideas and theories of anarchism. Various portraits capture the essence of this influential thinker throughout different stages of his life.

Sergei Levitsky's artwork captures Bakunin's revolutionary spirit while highlighting his role as a theorist of anarchism. Grünewald's portrait from 1841 portrays a young Bakunin full of vigor and determination to challenge societal norms. As time went on, he continued to refine his beliefs and fight for social justice. Not only did Bakunin leave behind a legacy through his writings but also through personal connections like Anna Borisovna Bakunina, depicted in Streshnev's painting from 1832. These relationships influenced him greatly and contributed to shaping his ideology. Mikhail Aleksandrovich Bakunin remains an important historical figure whose ideas continue to inspire discussions about freedom, equality, and resistance against oppressive systems even today.
