Spring

Britische Grafik 1870–1881,

This painting depicts a pastoral landscape viewed from an elevated angle, showing rolling hills extending into the distance. Sheep graze on a hill closest to us, while trees on the left and right burst with pink and white blossoms. In the distance, a person with a dog walks up the slope toward us and the sheep. The color palette consists of pastel greens, pinks, and blues, while some of the grass is light yellow. The sky beyond the hills is mostly filled with white clouds, with small areas of blue peeking through.
