Granny's Orchard 1878

"Granny's Orchard" is an 1878 painting by Vasily Polenov that depicts two women, one elderly and one younger, walking through a garden toward a stately, neoclassical country house. Polenov, a prominent figure in the Russian Peredvizhniki movement, often painted idyllic rural scenes like this, showcasing the beauty of the natural world and the simple pleasures of everyday life. The painting is a testament to Polenov's skill in capturing light, detail, and atmosphere, conveying a sense of tranquility and warmth that is characteristic of his work. It is currently located in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia.
