Long Grass with Butterflies

Dense tufts of long grass fill a sunlit meadow in short green, yellow, and blue-violet strokes, with a pale path and yellow shrubs at the upper edge; small pale flecks, possibly butterflies, hover among the blades. Its thick, directional brushwork gives the field lively movement.

Español: Hierba alta con mariposas

Densos mechones de hierba alta llenan un prado soleado en trazos cortos y direccionales de verde, amarillo y azul violáceo, con un sendero pálido y arbustos amarillos en el borde superior; pequeñas manchas claras, posiblemente mariposas, revolotean entre las hojas. Su pincelada espesa y direccional da movimiento vivo al campo.

A pincelada espessa e direcional dá movimento vivo ao campo.
