[This is a gentle image] with its areas of blossom and feathery foliage, intense colours and various sources of light. Apart from a full moon, there is Fawley Refinery flaming on the horizon, a street lamp through trees to the right, and interior illumination from the doorway and curtained window of the adjacent house. Under Eurich’s brisk but light touch, this painting radiates life and growth.
