One Sunday Afternoon captures the artist’s passion for nature and keen eye for expressing overlapping foliage and ground contours. Painted with a fine balance of varied textures, this work illustrates a splendid view of trees seen from the distant horizon line. The composition evokes a poetic mood emphasising the wide expanse of the terrain.
