This painting shows a garden at night, lit by moonlight. The garden has a lot of elderflowers, which are white and round. The flowers are in a big group, and there are some trees around them. The painting is made with watercolour, which makes the colours look soft and gentle. The painting is very calm and peaceful. It looks like the artist wanted to show how beautiful the garden is at night, when it's quiet and still. The moonlight makes the flowers look like they're glowing, which is a really nice effect. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of the artist White, Franklin.
