Description: The Arrival of Spring by German artist Rudolf Epp. In the countryside, a young mother dressed in a German rural outfit is holding a baby in her arms. The image, depicted with tenderness, reflects a pastoral vision of the rural sites Epp repeatedly visited during his various journeys. Featuring a genuine attention to details in the treatment of nature, but also great acuity in the description of human feelings, Epp asserts his love for his native country.
