Using the contrast combinations of green, blue and white with dark colours the artist weaved the real lace out of the great trees and thing birches, the sun’s rays and purple fog, the light and shadow. The warm breeze is blowing and the light white clouds are floating in the sky. The new grass of the forest path is flooded with the last rays of the setting sun, but it is already dark and cool in the forest. The pictures of Rylov are real and fantastic at the same time. In the picture “The Green Lace” for example is depicted the fine summer day. But very soon the sun will have hidden behind the horizon and the forest falls asleep till the next morning. We can see how the forest interior is rapidly darkening and in some minutes nothing could be seen. If we listen we can hear the bees’ buzz and the birds’ babbling.
