Early spring in the Vienna Woods 1861

Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller's "Early Spring in the Vienna Woods" (1861) is a charming depiction of a group of children enjoying the early days of spring in the Austrian countryside. The painting captures the vibrant colors of the season as the snow begins to melt, revealing the bright green grass and wildflowers. The children are dressed in their traditional clothing, their faces full of delight as they pick primroses and gather branches. Waldmüller's painting is a testament to the beauty of nature and the innocent joy of childhood.
