The artwork titled “Autumn Evening. Trail in the Forest,” created by Isaac Levitan in 1894, originates from the Russian Federation. The piece is associated with the Realism movement and belongs to the genre of landscape painting.
The artwork captures a serene autumn evening in a forest. A trail meanders through the composition, drawing the viewer’s eye into the middle ground and beyond. The right side of the artwork features dense, shadowed trees, creating a rich contrast with the brightly lit trees on the left, which are adorned in warm autumnal hues. The interplay of light and shadow enhances the depth and realism of the scene, while the loose brushstrokes convey a sense of movement and the passage of time. The sky, painted with light, soft colors, suggests the fading light of evening, completing the tranquil and contemplative atmosphere of the landscape.
