Created in 1982, the painting depicts the summer garden at a Dacha in Berngardovka, near Leningrad, the location of Antipova's main workshop during the years 1980–2000.
According to art historian Leo Mochalov, the image created in the painting can be considered as a "model of the world, which is perceived by the artist as a precious gift, like our own existence, inseparable from this world".[4]
The first time the painting was shown was in 1988, during an exhibition at the Leningrad Union of Artists. It was shown again in 1989 at an exhibition of 26 Moscow and Leningrad artists.[5] In 1999, the painting was shown a third time in the Central Exhibition Hall of Manezh, located in Saint Petersburg at the common exhibition of Evgenia Antipova and Victor Teterin.[4] The painting was described and reproduced in the exhibition catalogue.[6]
