Mountain landscape, characterized by a large, bright white cloud that immediately attracts attention. Its shape is imposing and almost three-dimensional, with brush strokes that suggest volume and movement. The cloud seems to stand out against a grayish blue sky, creating a strong contrast.
Just below are the mountains, painted in shades of green, brown and gray, and between them a wide valley with a meandering stream.
The valley is painted in lighter shades and in the distance you can see small buildings, a bell tower. The sense of depth and distance is very well rendered.
In this painting the light comes from above and casts shadows and plays of light and dark on all the elements, creating three-dimensionality.

The painting conveys a feeling of majesty and tranquility. The large white cloud, standing out against the sky, creates a focal point that attracts the eye and invites contemplation. The mountain landscape, with its solid shapes and earthy colors, helps to create a sense of balance and harmony.
