The artwork titled “Parkway,” created by Isaac Levitan around 1882 in Moscow, Russian Federation, belongs to the Realism art movement and falls under the landscape genre.
In this artwork, Levitan masterfully captures a serene and shaded parkway, lined with tall, elegant trees that stretch upwards towards the sky, creating a canopy of lush green foliage. The pathway beneath is dappled with gentle sunlight piercing through the leaves, casting a tapestry of light and shadow on the ground. The trunks of the trees, rendered in rich shades of brown and green, offer a sense of depth and perspective, inviting the viewer into the tranquil and almost ethereal forest scene. The attention to detail in the play of light and natural forms exemplifies the realism and meticulous observation characteristic of Levitan’s work.
