Attached to the painting is the opinion of Agnieszka Lavniczakova.

"A painting painted from nature, spontaneously and bravura. (...) The expressive textural elements, the handling of both a broadly established color patch and a concise touch of color as well as a soaring line of drawing and an element of thick contour, contribute to the painterly richness of this study. The way of painting emphasizes at the same time the spontaneity of seeing and the emotional feeling of the color intensity of nature."
