This painting, titled "Pond" by Birutė Butkienė, captures a serene waterscape surrounded by lush vegetation. The foreground shows a pond dotted with white water lilies. Reflections in the water add depth and a sense of tranquility. Above, a variety of trees draped in green, yellow, and hints of purple suggest a warm, possibly late summer scene. Overhanging willows on the left immerse the viewer into a canopy of dense foliage. Birutė Butkienė uses a soft, textured style that blends colors gently, creating an impressionistic feel.
