In a summery park with many birch trees in fresh green, a young woman in an elegant blue shiny dress with a short-sleeved frill blouse and a straw hat on her black pinned-up hair has approached a seating group. Around her hips a red glowing bow tied under her back over the wide dress. She has her right hand resting on the wooden table and looks to the left with a serious expression. The sitting area with the two woven chairs is located in a small niche in the park and is surrounded by numerous shrubs and blooming red, white and purple flowers, including hollyhocks and geraniums. In the background, between the trees, the gaze falls on a young couple in love in rear view, surrounded by fresh yellow-green leaves and twigs. Quality atmospheric painting with many differentiated shades of green and skilfully placed spots of red and white colour in the form of flowers. (1221936) (18)
