About this motif
"Lenz" is an old, poetic German word for spring. When the birches come into leaf and the water sparkles, the landscape awakens after winter.
Gerhards' colour etching "Towards Spring" shows slender birches by a stretch of water, with green meadows, spruces and a distant building beneath a blue sky. Image about 24 x 30 cm, framed on request.
