This painting by Alexander Michael, dated 1972, depicts a vivid summer landscape with three prominent trees rising above an untamed, textured meadow. The expressive, impasto brushwork conveys a sense of vibrant movement and depth. The color palette blends rich greens and earthy tones, set against a clear, turquoise sky. Executed in oil on chipboard. The artist’s signature 'AM 72' appears in the lower left corner. A simple cream-colored wooden frame completes the presentation, complementing the natural theme without distraction.

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.
