Bauerngarten mit Sonnenblumen (1906)

Gustav Klimt (Austrian, 1862–1918)

Sunflowers burst through tangled greenery, their golden heads tilting toward an unseen light. The garden hums with hidden energy—every leaf and petal vibrates with color, as if the earth itself is exhaling summer. A wild harmony of shapes pulses beneath the surface, alive and untamed.
A Young Girl In A Garden (1884)

Alfred Augustus Glendening (English, unknown)

A girl stands among tangled blooms, her white dress catching the sunlight. The garden hums around her—lush greens, scattered petals, the quiet weight of summer air. She seems both part of the scene and separate from it, poised between childhood and something just beyond.
Summer Day (1911)

Frank Weston Benson (American, 1862–1951)

Sunlight dapples through the trees as a woman in a wide-brimmed hat sits by the water. Brushstrokes blur the line between reflection and reality, the air thick with warmth. Loose, vibrant colors suggest a fleeting afternoon—leisure suspended in the golden haze of season.
Reverie (1872)

Winslow Homer (American, 1836–1910)

A woman sits alone in tall grass, lost in thought. The breeze stirs her dress as sunlight filters through the trees. Her distant gaze suggests a private moment, suspended between memory and possibility. The scene holds quiet tension—something unspoken lingers in the air around her still figure.
Spring

Joseph Rubens Powell (English, 1860–1926)

New life bursts through the canvas—tender greens, blossoms unfurling. The air hums with warmth, earth softening underfoot. A season waking, restless and bright.
In the Orchard (1891)

Edmund Charles Tarbell (American, 1862–1938)

Sunlight filters through the orchard leaves, dappling the women’s dresses as they move between the trees. Their quiet conversation blends with the rustle of branches, a fleeting harmony of color and shadow beneath the shifting canopy.
Young Woman by the Water

Max Nonnenbruch (German, 1857–1922)

A woman stands by the water’s edge, her gaze distant. The surface mirrors the sky, blurring where she ends and the world begins. Something lingers in her stillness—not quite sorrow, not quite peace. The water holds its breath with her.
Cherry Blossoms

William Henry Holmes (American, 1846–1933)

Pink petals drift through soft spring air, brushing branches still damp with morning. The trees hum with quiet life, their blossoms trembling in the breeze like pale silk. A fleeting breath of warmth lingers where winter just left.
The Monet Family in Their Garden at Argenteuil (1874)

Édouard Manet (French, 1832–1883)

Sunlight dapples through the trees as a family gathers in their lush garden. The woman’s white dress glows against the greenery while a child plays nearby. Loose brushstrokes blur the line between domestic tranquility and nature’s wildness—a fleeting afternoon where cultivated order meets untamed growth.
