"Boulevard in the Evening" (1883) by Isaac Levitan portrays a snow-covered boulevard at night, the scene dominated by bare trees silhouetted against the dark sky. The subtle use of light emanating from street lamps creates a melancholic atmosphere, reminiscent of the artist's signature style of landscape painting. The painting, housed in the National Gallery of Armenia, is a captivating example of Levitan's ability to evoke mood and emotion through the depiction of nature. This realistic portrayal of a winter evening scene emphasizes the beauty of everyday life, a signature characteristic of Levitan's oeuvre.
