The watercolour depicts a hushed scene of pollarded willows in an open landscape. The trees, drawn with a loose, impressionistic touch, dominate the image with their gnarled, weathered trunks and jagged branches.
The artist has captured the essence of the winter landscape, with the colours muted and the shapes suggesting more than they define. The front tree, prominent, shows a wealth of detail in its bark and cut branches, evoking a sense of age and resilience. The trees behind fade into the distance, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere.
The soft, pale green hue of the ground contrasts subtly with the warm brown tones of the trees. The whole work exudes an understated beauty and a poetic reflection of nature in its purest form. It is as if time itself has come to a standstill in this moment of contemplation.
