Painting of a flowering orchard with white blossoms, a sandy path, tall dark cypress trees under a teal sky, and a wooden shed at right.

Flowering orchard, surrounded by cypress

A painted orchard in full bloom, with white and cream blossoms on rounded trees beside a sandy path running toward the viewer. Tall dark cypresses rise against a teal sky, and a straw-roofed wooden shed with a trellis stands at the right edge. Thick, visible brushstrokes in greens, yellows and blues give the oil painting a textured surface.
