About this artwork+
This painting shows a peaceful landscape at the break of spring. A quiet pond reflects the soft pinks and blues of a dawn sky. Trees line the water, some bare and others just beginning to sprout leaves. The ground near the pond blooms with early flowers, adding a splash of color. Irena Jasiūnienė, the artist, uses a gentle, impressionistic style. Her brushstrokes blend colors warmly, creating a dreamy atmosphere. The scene feels tranquil, filled with the promise of new life. It's as if the whole landscape is waking up after a long sleep.
