By the Lake 1933

Konstantin Gorbatov's 1933 painting "By the Lake" is a tranquil landscape depicting a winding path along the shore of a lake. The soft hues of the sky and water create a sense of serenity, while the brushstrokes add a touch of Impressionism to the piece. The figures in the distance, though small in scale, add a sense of narrative and human presence to the scene. This serene landscape exemplifies Gorbatov's mastery of light and color, creating a contemplative and beautiful portrayal of nature.
