DescriptionThe image is a landscape of natural brush and a large, green tree in the right foreground and mountains in the background. The brushstrokes are loose and the color palette is composed of muted blues, greens, yellows, and greys. There is a horizontal line of light foliage that stretches across the foreground of the painting. It ends with a yellow bush at the lower right edge of the painting. There are three dark fence posts sticking a short way out of the ground in the lower right corner as well. The middle ground is covered in grass and there are several groupings of light green bushes. There is a prominent, dark green tree at the right edge of the work. In the background, there are three layers of mountains: the nearest one swoops down from the left toward the center of the work, the middle mountain peaks slightly to the right of center, and the furthest mountain peaks in the center. The sky is light blue and is covered in soft, white clouds. On View
