AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"A tree is a passage"
We see for Robert van den Herik a typically deserted landscape, bathed in a magical atmosphere, with light coming from an as yet unknown planet. The dark road leads to a barren mountainous landscape. Along the roadside stands a tree, an imposing tree with light blue-gray leaves and a sturdy trunk that dominates the left side.
Through the air glide stylized, winged beings in an elegant formation. The work is painted with acrylic on wood, which emphasizes the vivid textures and contrasts.
