Spring Landscape

Berthe Morisot, ca. 1890/1891

The image depicts a landscape with trees viewed from an elevated perspective. The horizon line is high, with tall trees stretching across. The brushstrokes are sketch-like, creating movement and texture. The color palette is soft with earthy tones of pale orange, yellow, green, and blue. The trees in the foreground are faintly outlined, leading the eye towards the mid-region with scattered trees and a blurred background.
