Same period and same place as the previous painting, Trees. I painted it from a window in the house where I lived with my parents. Of course I intensified the colours but not as much as you might think. Looking at the photo of this painting now, with the grey London sky outside my window, I feel nostalgia (Brazilians call it saudade) for Brazil and South America in general.
