This mountain landscape belongs to the Dagestan cycle of Vitaly Markin – a Rostov painter and graphic artist, Merited Artist of Russia – alongside his works devoted to the nature of Kabardino-Balkaria and Karachay-Cherkessia. Its subject is the Khunzakh upland, a high plateau in the historic mountainous heart of Dagestan. Generalized forms and a restrained tempera palette convey the austere, sparsely settled character of the Caucasian terrain.
