The colorful, detailed painting is set against a backdrop of traditional Russian architecture, including a church and a marketplace with vibrant stalls, offering a snapshot of everyday life. This painting, now housed at the State Museum of Fine Arts in Nizhny Tagil, is a vivid example of Kustodiev's signature style, characterized by bold colors, energetic brushwork, and a celebration of Russian folk culture.
