Words are for the most part useless to express my feelings about this painting and about the fact that it must have been one of the last - if not the very last - master works in Alexei Savrasov's troubled but artistically brilliant career.

Dear friends, I would like to post a few Savrasov's early paintings that I have missed so far. Here is a beautiful couple to begin with.


Alexei Savrasov - Summer Day (oil on canvas, 1856)


Alexei Savrasov - View of Pechersk Lavra in Kiev from the Dnieper
(oil on canvas, 1852)

And friends, you will agree with me that this masterpiece is exceptional.

Beautiful. I love the storm.

So dramatic.

The others are so very good. Like you, I run out of words.

This one painting is pretty known; I don't know how I could miss it at all.
