Autumn.On Bridge 1910

Konstantin Alexeevich Korovin made this painting, Autumn. On Bridge, with visible brushstrokes that capture the light, almost like memories flickering across the canvas. There’s a real materiality to the painting, right? You can almost feel the roughness of the wood in the bridge and the dampness of the water, thanks to the way he's layered the paint. It's not about hiding the process; it's about embracing it. The reflections in the water are these broken, shimmering marks that feel totally intuitive. Look at that figure in red, just a dab of paint, but it brings the whole scene to life! It reminds me of Impressionists like Monet, but with a uniquely Russian soul, you know? It’s like Korovin’s saying, "Here's a moment, fleeting and beautiful, don't try to pin it down, just feel it."
