This painting shows a garden scene with trees and flowers. The garden looks peaceful and well-maintained, with a few paths and a large tree in the center. It's interesting that the artist used gouache over graphite to create this piece, which was a common technique at the time. You can learn more about the artist who used this technique, Pérignon, Nicolas, to see similar works.
