"The Rooks Have Returned" (Russian: Вороны вернулись) is an iconic oil painting by Russian artist Alexei Kondratyevich Savrasov, created in 1871. This work is widely regarded as a masterpiece of Russian landscape painting and is one of Savrasov's most famous and celebrated pieces. The painting is emblematic of the lyrical landscape genre, which Savrasov was instrumental in developing, and it captures the quintessential moment of early spring in Russia when the rooks, a type of bird, return to their nesting grounds, signaling the end of winter.

Measuring 62 by 49 centimeters, the painting depicts a simple, yet evocative rural scene. In the foreground, a bare tree stands beside a thawing patch of snow, with a wooden fence and a church in the middle distance, all under a vast, expansive sky that suggests the changing season. The rooks, which are barely visible against the grey sky, are a subtle yet central element of the composition, their presence indicated by the title and by their calls, which the viewer can almost hear.

Savrasov's work is celebrated for its ability to convey the mood and atmosphere of the Russian countryside through his sensitive treatment of light and color. "The Rooks Have Returned" is no exception; it is admired for its poetic rendering of the landscape and the emotional resonance it evokes in the viewer. The painting is a testament to Savrasov's skill in capturing the transient beauty of nature and the hopeful sentiment associated with the arrival of spring.

"The Rooks Have Returned" is held in high esteem not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural significance. It reflects a deep appreciation for the Russian landscape and is often interpreted as a metaphor for renewal and the cyclical nature of life. The painting is housed in the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, where it continues to be a highlight of the collection and a beloved piece of Russia's cultural heritage.
