Painting of a rushing river with white rapids and a dark boulder, pine trees on a sunlit slope, and snowy mountain peaks under a blue sky.

River in the Alps

A painted mountain landscape shows a turbulent river with white rapids spilling over rocks in the lower right, and a dark boulder at its center. On the left, tall bare-trunked pines line a sunlit slope, while snow-capped peaks rise under a deep blue sky. Oil on canvas, with warm light against cool shadows.
