About this work

A broad river landscape painted in soft, luminous tones shows a flowering meadow beside a calm stretch of water, with a rowing boat and figures near the left bank. Dense trees and blossoming hedgerows frame the middle distance, with distant hills fading under a pale, cloud-scattered sky. This 1890 work by Benjamin Williams Leader is titled The Merry Month of May.
