This very lovely serigraph, "Violets" by Adolf Sehring depicts two baskets of beautiful purple violets sitting on a very wide, sun drenched window sill. The structure seems old and the walls are thick roughly cut stone. The wall to the right of the two baskets has hints of beautiful purple tones in the shadow sections, echoing the purple of the violets below. The window shows the viewer a very rural country landscape, with fences in fields and a long barn in the distance. A small country road also cuts across the upper left of the landscape outside of the window The fields closest to the window look untended, while the fields in the distance seem to have already been harvested. Perhaps the only thing to harvest in the fields closest to the window are the lovely violets.
