Catalogue Note

By the 1890s, Kiselev was immensely popular with collectors from Moscow, St Petersburg and Odessa. His patrons also included Grand Duke Georgy Mikhailovich, who bought another work from this year, Along the River Terek (1895). The present work is characteristically dated to the day, and shares the same bright palette and fresh greens of other landscapes from this period, Village on the Riverbank (1893, Zaporozhye Art Museum) and Senokos (1894, Sochi Art Museum).
