Painted landscape at dusk: slender poplars and reddish trees on dark hills, with a still pond reflecting a pale, cloudy sky.

Sunset in Alsace

A painted landscape shows a dusky evening sky with pale clouds above a line of dark hills covered in reddish-brown trees. Tall, slender poplars rise along the hillside and frame a still pond whose surface reflects the dark banks and sky.

Un paisaje pintado muestra un cielo crepuscular con nubes pálidas sobre una línea de colinas oscuras cubiertas de árboles pardo-rojizos. Álamos altos y esbeltos se elevan por la ladera y enmarcan un estanque en calma cuya superficie refleja las orillas oscuras y el cielo.
