Description |
"The classical facade of the men's wing, depicted with yellow walls and green shutters [...] forms a low horizontal background. Diminuitive figures of men and women stroll through an unkempt park. But the real movement - indeed, the intense excitement of the painting - is engendered in the towering trees, given life by the application of pigment in flamelike brushwork." (p.167) |
