Mixed media garden scene

This charming scene of a quiet garden is somehow both busy and still. The vibrant colours and hundreds of flowers and plants fill the composition with life and energy, whilst this tranquil little corner is private and secluded, creating the perfect peaceful moment. The depth of colour, texture and technique in this piece truly is a treat for the eyes, as the wine and olives on the table remind us of the simple pleasures in life, which have been leisurely discarded, perhaps whilst the owners take a sleepy siesta from the afternoon sun. Artist name: signed (artist unidentified at present) Approx date: second half of 20th century.
