A close view of the front of a bicycle parked in tall summer grass, its wicker basket loaded with cut flowers. Alexey Slusar painted Summer Outing in oil on canvas in 2022, an upright canvas at 70 by 50 centimetres.

The bike has a rust-red frame and a worn pale leather saddle, and the basket holds a tumble of yellow and orange blooms with a wrapped paper at the back. The grass behind is a thicket of dry golds and greens, painted in quick vertical strokes that nearly swallow the back wheel. The crop is tight, so it reads as a quiet, sunlit detail rather than a wide landscape.
