Over het schilderij
In de woorden van het museum — in het Russisch
Солнечный летний день. На переднем плане слева - желто-коричневый берег с лодкой у воды, справа - коричневато-синяя река с тремя баржами. Вглубине - лесистый зеленый берег. Бледно-голубое с легкими белыми облаками небо.

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.
