About this work

This painting shows six panels of nature scenes. On the left, bright yellow leaves cover bushes and trees. In the middle, red flowers and green plants grow by a stream. The right side has bare branches with a few brown leaves and a large, curved rock. The artist used gold and silver to make the leaves and flowers shine. The background looks like rough paper, almost like a sketch. Look up Baroque next to see how this style used drama and detail in art.
