Russian Art
Vasiliev, F. A.
"View of the Volga, Boats, Detail". 1870
Notes: Detail from "View of the Volga, Boats"
This detail subtly suggests Vasiliev's familiarity with Barbizon painting and perhaps the early work of Jongkind. At the same time it retains a feeling for breadth and atmosphere reflective of the painter's Russian roots.
