Ivan Shishkin's Morning in a Pine Forrest 1889, housed at the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow

If this card seems somewhat familiar, that's because it is the second time I have received the same card.  The first was a direct swap which I published on June 6, 2014.  This card was set to me in October of last year.    

This is apparently the second most beloved painting in Russia, according to the painting's Wikipedia page.  The landscape was painted by Ivan Shishkin; however, the bears were added by an additional Russian painter, Konstantin Savitsky.
