Scope and content
Horizontal colour landscape painting. The upper section of the painting is green fading into yellow. On the left side of the page, there is a city skyline of tall rectangular buildings and a taller skinny building with a circular piece about one-third from the top. In front of the city skyline is a cluster of dark coloured trees to the left edge. In front of the skyline and trees is an oval-like shape pond reflecting the colour of the sky (orange, yellow, and white details) and the trees. Over the water towards the right side, there is a dark coloured bird. On the right side of the painting is a grey vertical path leading from the bottom right corner to about one-third from the top. Around the path and water, there are green trees and some orange leafed trees. In the sky beside the orange tree, there are two dark coloured bird flying. Between the trees and water on the water’s right edge, there is a brown edge with darker crack-like details. Slightly above there is a white bird flying horizontally to the right side. In front of the water at the bottom right and centre side, there is long dark lines of grass with some yellow and pink details. At the bottom right, there is a hand-written name.
