  • In the middle of a park meadow bursting with flowers, the painter has placed his easel close to a bed of blooming hyacinths. Viennese artist Hugo Charlemont, who painted idyllic views of nature and floral still lifes, probably stepped away from the garden path to do so. This angle would not provide a full view of his subject. As a result, the picture appears cropped and slightly off-center. Nevertheless, this framing of the subject lends the imagery a spontaneous, real quality. The summer hyacinths in the foreground add a sense of atmosphere and realism to the park scene.
