Mientras tanto, en la vida de Isaac Levitan
La vida enteraautumn 1873
Admitted to the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture
At thirteen he enters the school where his elder brother Abel-Leib has studied since 1871; his teachers are Vasily Perov, Alexei Savrasov and Vasily Polenov.

The death of his mother and his father's illness
His mother dies; his seriously ill father has to give up his work on the railway and cannot support four children by tutoring. The family's position is such that the school gives the brothers material help from time to time.

3 February 1877

On 3 February 1877 his father dies of typhus; a time of extreme want begins for Levitan, his brother and sisters. Isaac himself is then studying in the “life class” under Vasily Perov.
spring 1888
He discovers Plyos on the Volga
In spring 1888 he sails by steamer along the Oka to Nizhny Novgorod and on up the Volga with the artist Alexei Stepanov and Sofia Kuvshinnikova; to their own surprise they discover the small, quiet town of Plyos and decide to stay on for a while. The three summer seasons there (1888–1890) prove extremely productive: some two hundred works bring Levitan wide fame.
