Descripción
Las obras de gran formato de Shishkin de la década de 1880 transmiten imágenes épicas de la naturaleza rusa, con amplios panoramas de bosques remotos. A este esquema compositivo corresponde también Antes de la tormenta. Sin embargo, el motivo del paisaje y su tratamiento del claroscuro corresponden más bien a los principios compositivos de las obras postrománticas.
