For this picture the artist received the title of academician. The plot of the picture is very simple. In the village hut, three men, having stayed behind conversations, with a bottle of vodka, did not notice how dawn came, the sun rose. Boiled samovar. They poured one at a time on the road, and suddenly… the nightingale sounded…
Men froze in delight, listening to iridescent roulades. The artist shows that despite the external peasant rudeness, these men are able to feel subtle, to hear the sounds of nature…
