Artist, Czech, born 1948

This is a painting of a landscape featuring bare trees and fences. The scene is depicted in a stylized, almost abstract manner. The composition is divided into two parts: the lower section with pruned, leafless trees rising behind wooden fences, and the upper section with larger, floating trees against a soft green background. The fences enclose the smaller trees, creating a pattern of geometric shapes and lines. The sky's gradient from warm to cool greens adds an ethereal quality to the scene. The painting combines both surreal and realistic elements, creating a whimsical yet structured composition.
