Scottish Highlands

A painted Highland landscape shows green, sunlit hills under a stormy sky, with a pale loch between slopes and dark trees in the foreground. Shafts of light break through the clouds over the mountains, while heather and shrubs fill the lower meadow in soft brushwork.

Español: Tierras Altas de Escocia

Un paisaje pintado de las Tierras Altas escocesas muestra colinas verdes iluminadas bajo un cielo tormentoso, con un lago pálido entre las laderas y árboles oscuros en primer plano. Haces de luz atraviesan las nubes sobre las montañas, mientras brezos y arbustos cubren el prado inferior con pinceladas suaves.
