About the piece

Painted in 1919 by Canadian-American artist Ernest Lawson, this work captures the lush arrival of spring using a rich impasto technique. Flowering trees in creamy whites dominate the foreground, leading the viewer's eye toward a quaint home and the textured, light-drenched mountain peaks that define the horizon.
