Description of the painting by Alexei Savrasov In the Park

1858

Landscape, depicting the park, written in pencil. Different shades of gray make each piece play. All trees are clearly drawn, almost every leaf is shown. Despite the gray colors, the picture leaves a feeling of a living, breathing cool and fresh park with trees in it.

In the foreground are several massive tree trunks with delicate, beautiful crowns. The trees are different, but the gray color unites them, forcing them to become native and one in this holistic landscape.

The first line of the picture depicts an alley along which stands stand. The tree trunks cast shadows on the alley, which the artist was able to successfully show. Small branches, small stones, grain and heterogeneity of the soil – the author was able to show all this without even using color.

The background seems to be covered with a haze, a light fog, in which, gradually moving away, the silhouettes of trees are lost. To wander along such an avenue, to admire the sunrise or sunset, to breathe the fresh, purified and fragrant air from the foliage, everyone who looks at this landscape will certainly want it.

The harmony of nature and man is reflected in the image of the park. After all, the park is a place created by man. However, the landscape of the park is entirely due to nature. In the harmonious merging of both terms, an extraordinary place is born, in which you want to relax, unwind and unite with nature.

Skillful, competent lines and strokes make it possible to judge the author as a talented artist. And the depicted landscape shows in him a sensitive and vulnerable person who loves nature and knows how to express it by writing pictures. The overall impression of the picture is peace, tranquility, awe of the beauty of nature, a sense of harmony and naturalness.
