Creativity Pelevin had no significant influence on the development of genre painting in Russia in the second half of the XIX century, it nevertheless occupies a prominent place in the history of national art.

Artworks are inherent narrative, simplicity and clarity of composite construction (often odnofigurnaya dvuhfigurnaya or composition), decorative (sometimes even some "mush") color. The good-natured tone, the lack of critical start, typical of many masters, the Wanderers, sentimental images, the idealization of peasant life makes them a "salon" art of this time.

In the words of art historian and art critic FI Bulgakov, Pelevin, "tries and manages to catch the bright side of peasant life. This - the family with its modest pleasures, the circle of children, as brothers living with animals, genuine delight commoner feelings of maternal love ... In the image of a peasant idyll ... Pelevin does not yet have his rivals. Even in a residential house, he can spy on an environment that allows the artist to show and taste, and tact. Columnist "Art News" Chuiko wrote: "Pelevin is looking for in the plot does not play types, and the transfer of certain poetic feeling. Genre, understood this way, more interesting and more significant than a simple, naked, protocol ... reality ».
