About this work

This painting shows a serene garden scene with trees and a winding path. The trees are bare, suggesting it's winter. You can see a few buildings in the background. The garden looks peaceful and well-manicured. The artist used simple lines and colors to create this scene. This style is similar to others of its time. Check out the technique: lithography.
