Springtime is a 1857 by Charles François Daubigny, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a serene landscape with a few trees and a figure on a horse in the distance. The scene is set in a field with tall grass and a few trees, with a dirt path running through it. The sky above is light and airy, with a few clouds scattered about. The artist has used a range of colors to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the painting. The trees and grass are depicted in shades of green, while the sky is a soft blue. The figure on the horse is small but prominent, adding a sense of scale to the scene.
