Description of Arkhip Kuindzhi’s painting An Evening in the Ukraine
Arkhip Kuindzhi predominantly painted landscapes, which were at the height of popularity in the 1870s. This was due to the fact that there was a wave of popularity of the ideal of humanism. Inspired by popular values, the artist set to work. Above all, in his paintings he embodied human values, wealth, not only physical, but also spiritual.
The central figure of the idealistic world becomes - nature, which is constant, changing and creating landscapes of amazing strength and beauty. But this was not always the case, until that time, it was high art to depict the gray and dull landscape of the Russian countryside indeed, but thanks to creative exploits, this barrier was broken down.
Kuindzhi began to create colorful paintings, admiring simple and ordinary things. For example, fields flooded with moonlight and many other natural phenomena. He romantically showed the playfulness and tenderness of the environment.
The painting "Evening in Ukraine" depicts the harmony of the worlds: natural and artificial. It is worth looking closely at how the house "blends" into the environment, not being the center of the composition, but maintaining its integrity. It seems that time has stopped, leaving the moment when the sunset left its mark on the roof and walls of the houses. Nature, gently enveloping and wishing a peaceful night to everything around it.
The painting is filled with vibrant energy and speakers, everyone will be able to vividly imagine how the evening in the countryside, even without looking at the people who would be superfluous. The canvas depicts the unity of the mundane and the human. The painting does not scream with its colors, only gently relaxes from the hardships of the past day.
Kuindzhi was able to create a new technique of using paint. The critics of the time, believed that the glow of the colors is nothing more than physiological irritation in the eye. The artist’s followers were able to prove that it was the skill and talent of Kuindzhi, who was able to achieve forced color and use it as the benchmark for a new aesthetic.

The picture has something of this: tree, landscape, mountain, water, fog, outdoors, light, hill, dawn, house, evening, cropland, wood, daylight, scenic, mist, sunset, sky.
Perhaps it’s a painting of a rural landscape with a house on a hill in the foreground and trees on the far side of the painting, with a blue sky in the background.
