Landschaft mit Gebäuden

Amerikanische Malerei 1770–1790, fourth quarter 18th century

This painting shows a green landscape seen from afar. In the distance, there are large white buildings partially obscured by tall leafy trees. Small people engage in leisure activities, such as walking along the grass, playing games, or sitting together. On the far left are two cows or horses in an open field. The color palette is mainly comprised of dark green, brown, and olive tones. The sky behind the trees is dark blue at the top of the painting, and transitions into a lighter yellow or peach color near the horizon.
