Autumn in the paintings of Russian artists is the brightest and most touching time, where there are red-yellow, golden and warm colors of the beautiful Indian summer, and where there is a rainy and touching landscape of truly Russian nature in all its beauty of autumn splendor.
Isaac Levitan - Golden Autumn
Isaac Levitan, Golden Autumn, 1895
Autumn was Levitan's favorite time of year, and he dedicated more than a hundred paintings to it. One of the most beloved paintings by the public is this Golden Autumn, although it is not so characteristic of the artist’s work - it is too bright, bold, and majorly executed. It is possible that Levitan himself was not entirely satisfied with it, because a year later he painted another picture with the same name, but painted more softly, tenderly, crystalline...
This autumn landscape is unusually bright and optimistic, despite the fact that in most of Levitan’s paintings the color scheme of sadness predominates - mixed muted tones. In total, the artist has about a hundred autumn landscapes. Their usual theme is the solemn and sad fading of the autumns of Russian nature. However, there is no sadness in this picture! The canvas depicts a deep forest river of saturated of blue color and reflective golden sunlight white-trunked birch trees in autumn decoration...
Vasily Polenov -Golden Autumn
Polenov’s Golden Autumn expresses to the viewer a comfortably lived-in corner of vast Russia, with its infinitely charming diversity, giving a person the joy of life, a contemplative mood and peace.
The Oka River winds steeply into the distance, reflecting part of autumn trees densely grown along the right bank of the river, where a white stone church is slightly visible in the distance. On foreground paintings of a hill descending to a river with greenish ocher hues, where a forest path runs along the right bank into the depths of a birch grove. Compared to the birches decorated with the golden color of autumn, an oak stands majestically, showing off its dark green foliage, not yet touched by the approaching autumn time. In harmony with oak color tone You can mark small Christmas trees planted along the path and talking about the beginning of a new life.
In the picture, everything is subordinated to the autumn season, the color scheme emphasizes the variety of foliage on the trees from green-red shades to bright yellow and orange, contrasting relatively blue colors rivers and sky. The artist picturesquely reflects the airy atmosphere of the picture, this is evidenced by the shores stretching into the smoky distance of the horizon, above which hangs a cloud-covered sky.
Ilya Ostroukhov – Golden Autumn
The painting by artist I. S. Ostroukhov “Golden Autumn” depicts precisely golden autumn. The painting is not full of leaves of red and Green colour. Everything is covered with a golden veil.
The whole picture is filled with some kind of joyful movement and is a very “talkative” picture for a sophisticated viewer. “We are happy to spin!” - the rustle of leaves announces, “now we’ll fly away!” - the lively magpies cheerfully warn. The oak trunk in the background, which is entwined with smaller trees, on the contrary, seems to tell the viewer about the resilience of the forest: “we will survive this autumn too!” And, as a result, a city dweller who visits the museum even in the chilly fall will walk away from this picture with a feeling of joyful amazement. And with the desire to get out into nature. Or, at least sit “In Abramtsevo Park,” as Ostroukhov’s second famous autumn landscape is called.
The picture is full of miracles: it is rare to see in a landscape an image of a forest “rejoicing” in early autumn. And this is all the more surprising because Ilya Semenovich Ostroukhov never trained professionally as an artist, he only took private painting lessons. And it’s a pity that his landscapes are less known than the paintings of Shishkin, Levitan or Polenov.
Isaac Brodsky – Golden Autumn
The painting “Golden Autumn” is painted in a very bright colors. It's hard to imagine such rich colors in real. But Brodsky makes us feel the whole atmosphere of autumn in a small village. In the foreground stand out trees with red-orange leaves, which personifies activity and vitality.
The openwork foliage and tree branches are beautifully drawn. A river flows at the edge of the village. The waves are carefully drawn in it. And in one place you can even see the reflection of a small house. Small figures of people go about their business, and someone admires beautiful landscape. After all, soon the leaves will fall, and it will come Cold winter. But at the same time there is no feeling of sadness.
The picture conveys with great accuracy the beauty of Russian nature. Red and orange colors have a revitalizing effect on a person. Weightless and fun mood creates the color of the road. The distant sky adds tranquility to the picture.
Vasily Meshkov – Golden autumn in Karelia
The painting “Golden Autumn in Karelia” was painted by V.V. Meshkov. An autumn landscape is depicted here. In the foreground there are heaps of stones from the dampness. dark color or maybe the sun doesn’t get enough light on them and they seem so gloomy, but all the “gold” that is scattered next to them makes them an unnoticeable part of the landscape. There are trees between these stones. They are quite weak in the trunk, but their foliage is dense and shimmers with all the colors of gold, amber and orange.
The background is also full of colors. Although the sky is cloudy, it still attracts the viewer’s gaze, even if only briefly.
He used as many colors as possible, many shades. Yellow, carrot, orange, ocher - to depict foliage, trees and a little earth. Brown-gray for creating rocks and gray-blue for the sky. And this is only a small part of the colors that we can catch.
The author chooses an elongated format for the painting. This gives the picture some kind of peculiarity. And it seems that for a reason. The author wanted to show how endless nature is and even by placing the picture like this he will not be able to fit all its beauty.
Autumn in painting, today I’m not quite regular topic. I suggest you today just take a break from the hustle and bustle, worries, and problems. Now is a wonderful time - autumn. One of my favorite times of the year. Autumn is so different for each of us, for some it is sad, with rain and piercing winds, but for others autumn is a golden time. In autumn, you can gather armfuls of yellow and red leaves, wander in the rain, breathe in the autumn coolness, wander through the forest, pick mushrooms, enjoy the beauty of fallen leaves, sit with a cup of hot tea in your hands and admire the beauty of autumn from the window. Wander through a cozy park with benches among fallen leaves, listen to the sound of autumn rain.
For me, autumn is one of the most beautiful and romantic times of the year. Autumn is a mysterious, mysterious, romantic, lyrical, thoughtful time. The unusually bright colors that autumn gives us provide room for creativity. Autumn is such a generous and bright time. Only in autumn is there such an abundance of fruits and vegetables on our table, in autumn the leaves on the trees seem to be painted by nature in bright colors, and in autumn you can endlessly admire the beauty of chrysanthemums...
Autumn is the most picturesque time of the year, it is a whole palette of bright, warm colors from light yellow to the darkest gray shades, and in terms of emotions, these are transitions: joy, sadness, smile, sorrow...
Since it’s autumn in painting today, I’ll say a few words about what painting is. Painting is a kind visual arts, which is associated with the transfer of images by applying paints to a flexible or solid base. Painting can be on any basis: canvas, silk, paper, leather, etc. Painting techniques: oil, gouache, watercolor, acrylic...Painting is created by our nature, man and time. Painting, like other forms of art, performs a cognitive, philosophical, aesthetic, social and educational function.

"Leaf Fall"
Ivan Bunin
The forest is like a painted tower,
Lilac, gold, crimson,
A cheerful, motley wall
Standing above a bright clearing.
Birch trees with yellow carving
Glisten in the blue azure,
Like towers, the fir trees are darkening,
And between the maples they turn blue
Here and there through the foliage
Clearances in the sky, like a window.
The forest smells of oak and pine,
Over the summer it dried out from the sun,
And Autumn is a quiet widow
Enters his motley mansion...
Autumn never repeats itself; every year it brings something new, delighting and delighting us. I suggest you relax and watch a video of autumn, gentle, touching and very beautiful. This video brought a smile, harmony in my soul, and admiration. I wish everyone Have a good mood, health, joy, warmth, a sea of smiles, let only good things surround you.
