About the painting
In the museum's own words — in Russian
Пейзаж с извилистой, уходящей к горизонту дорогой. По покрытой зелёной травой земле от левого нижнего угла вглубь - коричневая извилистая дорога. Справа - узкая, извилистая речка с зарослями кустарника по берегам, в глубине - тёмно-зелёная роща. Слева, у дороги - лошадь, в глубине - заросли деревьев. Серое, в синих тучах небо.
