My first impression is seems like landscape in some day of autumn when I first see that painting. But It is not simply drawn as landscape picture like a fantasy world. You can watch some fire in upper of right the corner of picture also notice someone who is like a princess in nursery story was drawn. The painter has intent to express that picture as one scene of some country ‘s mythological story. I think that picture has good balance and proportion because this picture was divided into equal parts in north and south. In addition, the color sense of green and yellow are much contrastive. And I cannot feel any sense of rhythm and emphasis because I’m difficult to recognize the theme at picture
