Descrizione dell’immagine
The painting depicts a rocky stream flowing over reddish-brown stones. The horizon is not visible in the scene. The stream narrows and curves beyond the rocks. The water cascades gently over smooth stones towards us, with a frothy texture. The color palette includes deep browns, greens, and a splash of blue from a bird. Greenery covers the upper areas as branches stretch overhead against a russet backdrop.
