And our painting this week is “Pond in Vela” by Vasily Dmitrievich Polenov. I hope you will enjoy as much as I did. If you have a Russian classical poem you wish translated, put it in the comment.

I have learned to live simply, wisely
Anna Akhmatova
Translated by Akirill.com

Когда шуршат в овраге лопухиWhen burdocks rustle in the ravine

Слагаю я веселые стихиI compose merry verses
