More about this artwork

"Homecoming at Sunset" (1912) is a striking creation by eminent artist Julius Sergius Klever. This painting captures the essence of a serene, pastoral landscape bathed in the warm glow of a setting sun. The canvas is dominated by a vibrant, fiery sky that casts an orange and golden hue across the snowy scene, reflecting the dwindling day's light.In the foreground, well-worn paths lead to a collection of rustic, snow-covered cottages, among which a traditional windmill stands out, its sails idle in the calm evening air. The presence of sparse, leafless trees adds a touch of raw natural beauty and symbolizes the harsh chill of winter.As one's gaze moves across the painting, small human figures can be discerned, returning home, perhaps after a day's work, lending a sense of life and activity to the otherwise tranquil and frozen landscape. The flight of birds ascending into the sky further animates the scene, suggesting the freedom and unpredictability of nature.Klever masterfully utilizes light and shadow, contrasting the sun's warm colors with the cool blues and whites of the snow, which adds depth and dimension to the composition.

Julius Sergius von Klever was a Baltic German landscape painter.

His father was a chemist who taught pharmacology at the Veterinary Institute. He displayed artistic talent at an early age and took lessons from Konstantin von Kügelgen. After completing his primary education, was enrolled at the Imperial Academy of Fine Arts where, at his father's insistence, he studied architecture. After a short time, however, he began to take landscape painting classes; first with Sokrat Vorobiev, then Mikhail Clodt.
