Attributed to Aleksei Kondratievitch Savrasov (Russian, 1830-1897) oil painting on canvas glued to board, Church in Spring. Signed lower left. Framed. Probably, a sketch for the future canvas, The Rooks Arrived, was painted by the artist during his trip to the Kostroma province. The prototype of the temple depicted in the picture is the Resurrection Church built at the end of the 17th century, which has survived to this day.
