A beautiful spring day was drawing to a close. High aloft in the clear sky floated small rosy clouds, which seemed never to drift past, but to be slowly absorbed into the blue depths beyond. At an open window, in a handsome mansion situated in one of the outlying streets of O., the chief town of the govern-ment of that name-it was in the year 1842-there were sitting two ladies, the one about fifty years old, the other an old woman of seventy.

A beautiful spring day was drawing to a close. High aloft in the clear sky floated small rosy clouds, which seemed never to drift past, but to be slowly absorbed into the blue depths beyond. At an open window, in a handsome mansion situated in one of the outlying streets of O., the chief town of the govern-ment of that name-it was in the year 1842-there were sitting two ladies, the one about fifty years old, the other an old woman of seventy. The name of the first was Maria Dmitrievna Kalitine. Her husband, who had formerly occupied the post of Provincial Procurator, and who was well known in his day as a good man of business-a man of bilious temperament, confident, resolute, and enterprising-had been dead ten years. He had received a good education, and had studied at the university, but as the family from which he sprang was a poor one, he had early recognized the necessity of making a career for himself and of gaining money.

Autorenporträt
Ivan Sergeevich Turgenev (1818-1883) was a prominent Russian novelist, short story writer, and playwright. He is regarded as one of the greatest figures in Russian literature and is particularly known for his nuanced characterizations, lyrical prose, and exploration of social and political issues. Turgenev's literary career began with poetry and short stories, but he gained widespread recognition with his collection of short stories, "A Sportsman's Sketches" (also known as "Sketches from a Hunter's Album"), published in 1852. This work, which depicted the harsh realities of serfdom and the lives of Russian peasants, is credited with influencing public opinion and contributing to the abolition of serfdom in 1861. Notable Works. "A Month in the Country" (¿¿¿¿¿ ¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿) (1855): This play is a psychological exploration of unrequited love and the complexities of human emotions. It remains a staple in Russian theater. Turgenev was part of the group of Russian writers who brought Russian literature to international prominence in the 19th century. He was a contemporary of Fyodor Dostoevsky and Leo Tolstoy, and although his works were less intense and philosophical than those of his peers, they were widely admired for their elegance and realism. Ivan Turgenev died on September 3, 1883, in Bougival, near Paris, France. His legacy endures through his contributions to Russian literature and his exploration of universal human themes.
