The superb landscape River Bank in Winter by Boris Bessonov transports the viewer to the enchanted world of winter nature, filled with an atmosphere of cold and silence. Nature here is frozen in the moment, shrouded in a blanket of soft snow, which shimmers with pink reflections of the setting sun. The light of this warm evening sun heralds the end of winter, adding a special emotional depth to the painting. The main focus of the work is the river, calmly flowing among the snow-covered banks. Its surface, like a mirror, reflects the slender firs that rise above the water like majestic giants, filled with power and tranquility. The snow covering their branches creates a feeling of a winter dream of nature, in which every movement seems to be slowed down by the frosty air. The sky, painted in soft blue, pink and grey tones, adds a sense of approaching spring, promising the imminent awakening of nature. This work by Bessonov enchants with its realism and masterful use of light and colour. The artist managed to convey not only the winter beauty, but also the subtle transition from cold to warm, from winter to spring. The painting evokes feelings of peace and tranquility, recalling the cyclical nature of time and the eternal harmony of nature. Boris Bessonov (1862–1934) Oil on canvas. Dimensions: 63 cm x 80 cm.

Semyon Fedorov (1867-1910). Landscape Summer day. Subtly conveys the atmosphere of a hot summer day, where the warm, Russian sun shines along the banks of the river with the aromas of herbs and the songs of larks. Time has stopped, thanks to the stone and sedge bush - the static scenes of the foreground. Behind them, the distance of a calm river unfolds with a light swell of blown wind. A shepherd and his flock are resting on the shore near a tree. But the semantic diagonal runs tangentially from the boulder on the left to the tree and to the church in the distance. This is a kind of marker of the inviolability, spaciousness, difficult happiness of Holy Rus`, where the sweet sadness of life comes with the mobility of the sky. Canvas dimensions: 62.5x97 cm.

Alexander Rizzoni. Genre scene Playing with cats. For all the seeming mercy of the plot, the poor boy playing with cats, the picture contains a layer of social criticism, without which Russian realism cannot do. The simple amusements of poor adolescence are the main theme of the work. Of the available entertainment, only playing with cats in the dust of an empty basement of a greengrocer`s shop remained. An Italian youth hides a bunch of turnips behind his back, with which he teases a cat sitting on a settled barrel. A meager light seeps in through the cobwebs of the window. But the unsophisticated cheerfulness, the positive temperament of youth, the unaccountable joy of life - take their toll. They illuminate the surrounding hardships, give meaning to life and value to being, the detached contemplation of which the artist offers. It has pity for a person who deserves better, and everyday wisdom of accepting circumstances. Life is everywhere, work affirms. Author`s signature in the lower right corner. Canvas, oil, 41x33 cm. Width: 62cm, Height: 70cm, Depth: 8cm, Weight: 15kg, Condition: Good, Material: Canvas, oil, ID: 7817
