Parmelee Estate in Bloom

Amerikanische Grafik 1917–1929, c. 1920

The painting shows a view of a garden with colorful flowers in bloom. The horizon is high, and behind the garden are hills, trees, and a partially hidden house. The flowers are mostly pink and purple, with hints of red, yellow, and orange. Between the blossoms are shades of light and dark green. A dirt path cuts diagonally through the flowers, starting at the bottom left of the image and vanishing into the trees towards the top right. The small area of sky at the top of the image is a very light blue. The brushstrokes are loose and fluid.
