Descripción

Desde 1886 Serov visitó a menudo la hacienda de su amigo Vladímir von Derviz. La naturaleza de la hacienda, tanto en invierno como en verano, le inspiró una serie de cuadros sosegados de admirable sutileza cromática, entre los que encontramos Viejos baños de Domotkánovo, un referente del impresionismo ruso. Estos paisajes, que interpretan líricamente la naturaleza, basados en tonalidades claras y pintados de una manera fresca y enérgica, fueron totalmente novedosos en su época y reflejan la búsqueda, por parte dela juventud rusa de la década de 1880, de unos recursos expresivos que correspondieran a su nueva visión del mundo.
