For those of you with low vision:
This painting shows four french windows in a white clapboard wall, in cobalt violet/grey shadow with a diagonal of sunlight hitting the lower right corner white. The windows darkly reflect the deep green lawn and horizontal stripe of blue/grey water under a cerulean sky, with a partially cropped drak evergreen tree and two tree trunks waving small boughs of yellow/green leaves. Cutting into these reflections are bright sky and water in shapes rectangular, angled and trapezoidal, that are mirrors on the interior wall. These bright shapes are interspersed in such a way as to form a sort of choreography in counterpoint to the mullions, rectangles, and darkly reflected scene in the windows.
