Failure of a bank is a 1891 oil by Vladimir Makovsky, a Realism work, held at Tretyakov Gallery.
This painting shows a crowded room with many people in dark coats and hats. Some are standing, some are sitting, and they all look serious. The room has a high ceiling, arched doorways, and a clock on the wall. The people in the painting seem to be waiting for something, and they all look worried. Some are talking to each other, and some are reading papers. The room is dimly lit, with only a few windows letting in some light. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who created this painting, you can look up Vladimir Makovsky.
