Flowers and Plants

A meadow on a steep bank covered with yellow globe-shaped flowers amid the tall grasses. In the mid-distance, a dry-stone wall marks the edge of the meadow and runs steeply downhill from right to left. Beyond the wall can be seen the far side of a small valley, which is largely covered with trees in full leaf. In the far distance is a major valley side rising to cliff tops with a slightly cloudy sky above.
