Maria Alekseevna Fedorova 1859-1934 Student of I.I. Shishkin. Romantic landscape Iva.Quiet backwater. Early 20th century. Canvas, oil. Painting: 70x56 cm. A poetic and gentle look at the height of summer prosperity at the old willow near the stopped water. Permeated with a metaphor of solitude and remembrance of the past. Dedicated to the contemplation of the bright sadness of late life. The contrasts of the shadow of the willow and the light heat of the foliage, the distant shore, are united by the thinnest and most delicate haze of violet and lilac hues, spilled over the transparent blue coolness of the water and skies. Thus, the anthem of life resounds both to the blossoming and to the withering.
