Charles Volkmar

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

The tile depicts a landscape scene with trees and water. The scene features a large dark blue tree in the center, with a body of water in the foreground that reflects the tree. The water appears choppy, with various shades of blue and white. There are additional trees on the left and right sides of the image. The sky is cloudy and gray, with shades of blue, white, and beige. The tile artwork, by Charles Volkmar, has a square shape with slightly rounded corners and a white background. The color palette is predominantly blue and white.
