Portrait of a man sitting on a park bench 1917

Vladimir Makovsky's 1917 painting "Portrait of a man sitting on a park bench" portrays a man in a top hat and coat sitting on a park bench. The man is depicted in a realistic style, and the loose brushstrokes and muted colors give the painting a sense of realism. The subject matter of the painting is a man in a park, which was a popular subject among Russian artists in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and the painting's overall tone is contemplative, reflecting the quietude of the scene.
