While working as a photographic retoucher, he developed a keen interest in photography. He opened his own studio in Kostroma and later in Nizhny Novgorod. Karelin regarded photography as a new medium of the pictorial arts. His genre compositions reflect the tendencies of the 'peredvizhniki' painters, an art movement of the so-called 'wanderers'. Karelin contributed to the technical development of photography, which were mainly lighting setups. In addition, he published a study on optics. Karelin's works were honored with a number of awards at Russian and European photography exhibitions. Shipping costs excl. statutory VAT and plus 2,5% (+VAT) shipping insurance.
