Laughing 1898

Filipp Malyavin’s 1898 painting "Laughing" depicts four women in vibrant red garments against a backdrop of a lush green field. The bold strokes and loose brushwork capture the energy and exuberance of the scene, suggesting a joyous moment shared by the women. The painting’s vivid use of color and its focus on capturing a fleeting moment of human emotion are characteristic of Malyavin’s Impressionist style. "Laughing" is a testament to Malyavin's skill in portraying the beauty and vitality of everyday life.
