Painting is an option (study) of which is in the Yaroslavl Art Museum. However, there is a significant difference. Right down on the mountain path, the artist has placed the small figure of a traveler, in which the viewer will definitely want to guess the figure of Christ. Contrast the scale of landscape and figure makes imbued with philosophical idea - and the man himself is a part of the universe. Many landscapes and many research Polenova were associated with finding places where Christ lived. The artist once he went the way of Christ on foot from Galilee to Jerusalem. For thirty years, Polenov creating paintings from the Gospels. Reflecting on the experience of traveling, Polenov constantly reworked sketches made from life, repeatedly returning to the same subjects.

Roerich came to worldwide recognition. (Preliminary estimate: 5.5 million - 7 million rubles.)

Lyrical landscape Kolmogorov Schilder "By Night" - this is the picture, which was exhibited at the 45th traveling exhibition in 1917 - the latest exhibition "Wanderers" in pre-revolutionary Russia. The painting depicts the northern sunset, the silence on the northern river - a refrain to the picture Levitan, established 20 years earlier. Schilder - one of the most famous Russian landscape painters of the late XIX - early XX centuries. His art combines the best features of the classical landscape Shishkin, whose favorite disciple he was, and subtle lyricism and impressionism inherent pictures Levitan, who openly admired Andrew Schilder. Painting "By Night" and refers to the late artist's best period. Contemporaries Schilder noted that epic lyricism of his paintings exhibited in the 1910s. a traveling exhibition in Moscow and St. Petersburg, bears obvious Levitanovsky features and it differs very thin knowledge of nature and the highest skill in the transfer of nuances of light. Presented at the trading landscape "By Night" refers to the top of creativity Schilder. (Preliminary estimate: 5.5 million - 9 million rubles).
