The artwork titled “Sunny Day. Near the isba.” was created by Isaac Levitan in 1899 using oil on canvas. This piece belongs to the Realism movement and falls under the genre of landscape painting. It is currently housed in the Tatarstan Museum of Fine Arts in Kazan, Russia.
The artwork depicts a serene rural scene bathed in sunlight. The foreground features a rustic isba (a traditional Russian wooden house) partly obscured by trees. The interplay of light and shadow on the ground and through the foliage of the trees creates a vivid and tranquil atmosphere. The composition captures the natural beauty and simplicity of a sunny day in the countryside, illustrating Levitan’s masterful use of light and color to evoke a sense of peace and realism.
