In this early work the artist depicts the kind of genre motif of nature in spring that was traditional for the Russian school of landscape paintings. This picture is a unique manifesto by the painter, who is turning to the tradition of the peasant genre in the works of V.A. Serov and K.A. Korovin. The artistic quality of glazing color transitions and the deep development of soft brown-ochre warm tones allow us to place the picture among the genuine masterpieces of the Leningrad school of painting.
