With major sympathy falls into to Company of movable art exhibitions, participating in their expositions. Travelings the Tireless traveller, Vereschagin went across Russia, to Caucasus, to Crimea, to Danube, in Zap.

Travelling impressions have underlain uncountable etudes and patterns which were composed routinely for Vereschagin in major cycles. " A Turkestani series " to Landscapes and conversations of the artist is peculiar ethnographic survey accuracy, romantic delight before diversiform beauty of universe and a household activities of peoples populating it. On the contrary, Vereschagin battle compositions are secreted with the rigid critical realism that answers a general tendency of from - art of 2-nd half of 19 century which all passes from bravura more resolutely, klassitsistsko-romantic " triumphes of winners " to naturalisticheski to frank modes tragical " a reverse of war ". So, well-known " a Turkestani series " Vereschagin (1869-73), being the picturesque annals of the Russian seizure of Central Asia, is not denuded propaganda imperial ambitions (as the artist would like to underline valour Russian and, on the contrary, "barbarity" and " sadisticheskuju cruelty " the opponent); but as a whole patterns, their zheltovato-brown colour absorbing in respiration of desert, are penetrated by feeling of a hopelessness and temporality.

" Napoleon in Russia " From a consequent series of the artist used the greatest popularity a cycle " Napoleon in Russia " (1899-1900), on themes of Domestic war 1812 years where, despite of a great skill of picture direction, top part nevertheless take bravura effects some kind of " historical opera ".
