A great oil painting depicting a landscape scene in the alpine foothills of Bavaria featuring a lush, vibrant countryside with rolling hills, trees, and a distant village as well as the alps in the background. The painting is rendered in expressive, textured brushstrokes with vivid greens, browns, and blues. The artwork is painted with oil on canvas in an impressionist style. Painted by the German artist Alexander Michael in 1973, it bears his signature on the lower right side.

Alexander Michael (1939-2024) was a German landscape, still life and architectural painter. His paintings can be stylistically assigned to Impressionism or a late Impressionist style. His loose painting style, applied with a sure hand, creates a lively and atmospheric effect with visible brushstrokes and bright colors. The light conditions, color tones and the artist's subjective perception are characteristic of his works.
