This storybook illustration is drawn with fine ink lines and washes of earthy color. A tall, pale house with a slate roof and a golden door sits at the center, with a thin curl of smoke rising from its chimney. Bare, dark trunks frame it on both sides.

Tulips in coral and pink rise in the foreground among tiny wildflowers. The sepia sky and leafless trees give the scene a hushed, early-spring feeling, with the flowers as the only bright color.
