Rye is a 1870 unspecified by Fyodor Vasilyev, a Realism work, held at Tretyakov Gallery.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with two windmills standing in a field of golden wheat. The windmills are positioned on the left side of the image, with the one on the right slightly closer to the viewer. The wheat field stretches out to the right, meeting the horizon line. The painting's color palette is dominated by shades of yellow and green, with the wheat field and the windmills' wooden structures blending harmoniously. The sky above is a soft blue, with no visible clouds or other features. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting. The windmills' sails are depicted in a state of gentle motion, suggesting a peaceful and idyllic scene.
