This painting shows a quiet countryside with rolling hills and a stone wall cutting across the scene. The sky is soft and pale, with a few wispy clouds. Trees and bushes dot the landscape, and the ground looks dry, almost golden in places. The stone wall in the middle leads your eye through the painting, like a path. The colors are mostly earthy browns and greens, with a touch of pink flowers in the bottom corner. Want to see more landscapes like this? Look up Romanticism.
