About this work

This painting shows a quiet mountain scene with a small pavilion by a stream. Tall, jagged rocks rise up behind the building, while skinny trees dot the hillsides. The colors are mostly gray and white, with faint hints of green and brown in the trees. Notice how the artist used soft shading to make the mountains look distant and misty. The pavilion sits alone, like a tiny shelter in a vast, empty landscape. If you like this style, look up Baroque.
