The picture was painted during the White Nights in St. Petersburg. This northern Russian city practically does not sleep in the summer. Due to the fact that the sun sets only briefly after midnight and reappears on the horizon after 3 am. This time gives a deceptive feeling of strength and energy because the sun is always in the sky. And there is practically no night. At this time, I got up at 4 am every day to watch the dawn sun gradually illuminate parts of the city. One by one, the houses appeared out of the twilight. At such moments, I feel life especially vividly. The dawn inspires a sense of hope and marks the beginning of a new beautiful day full of joy.
