“Evening at Volga” is an artwork by Isaac Levitan, created in 1888 in the Russian Federation. Associated with the Realism art movement, this landscape painting depicts a serene evening scene by the Volga River.
The artwork portrays a tranquil riverside setting at dusk. The sky, tinged with the last light of the setting sun, casts a soft, muted glow over the water. The expansive river reflects the sky’s colors, creating a seamless blend between the horizon and the water surface. Along the shore, small boats are anchored, adding a subtle human element to the natural scene. The overall composition exudes a sense of calm and peace, characteristic of Levitan’s masterful use of color and light to capture the delicate beauty of the Russian landscape.
