Stones. Chichi lake

Large rounded boulders, some smooth and pale, others darker and moss-stained, cluster along the near shore and rise from the shallow water in the foreground, their forms mirrored in the still surface. Across the lake a low mountain range fades into blue-grey haze, with a strip of dark pine forest and a sandy bank running along the far shore beneath an overcast sky.

Cool blue-grey and lavender tones dominate the water and distant hills, contrasted with warmer buff and ochre on the sunlit boulders. Smooth, careful brushwork renders the still reflections, while the muted, even daylight and quiet composition give the scene a calm, meditative stillness.
