Original – Isaac Levitan (1860-1900) was a Russian painter who advanced the genre of the "mood landscape." Born in Augustów, he entered art school in Moscow at only 13. Among his teachers was Alexei Savrasov, whose students painted en plein air. This Golden Autuman dates from 1895. From 1897 he headed the landscape studio at the Imperial Academy of Arts. Levitan, suffering from heart disease, died in June 1900, aged only 39.

• Oppose Lost in a gallery. Doesn't seem that this is his master work. The extracted images appear to be of higher resolution than the main one. Charlesjsharp (talk) 12:23, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
• Oppose, but not because of placement in the article, rather for severe reflections in the paint at lower right. --Janke | Talk 20:28, 15 November 2022 (UTC)
