Sunny day

Two dark tree trunks frame a view across a lawn toward an ornate iron fence and, beyond it, the pale dome and spires of a distant cathedral. Between the trees small figures sit on a bench and stroll along the fence line, while lush green grass dotted with wildflowers fills the foreground.

Bright greens and yellows in dappled sunlight define the foliage and grass, set against the cooler blue-grey of the distant skyline. Short, textured strokes of thick paint build up the leaves and grass, while the architecture is rendered more softly to suggest atmospheric distance. The overall impression is fresh, airy, and full of midday light.
