About this work

This painting shows a landscape with a stormy sky. The sky is filled with dark clouds and a bit of light shining through. In the foreground, there's a field of green grass with some trees in the distance. A woman in a long dress is walking in the field, looking up at the sky. The painting has a lot of dark colors, which makes the stormy sky stand out. The trees and the woman are painted in a more realistic style, while the sky is more expressive.
