Here, delicately and in detail, Les Néréides tells a beautiful story that finds its rhythm in the changing seasons. It is inspired by two migrating birds, known as much for the beauty of their plumage as for their melodious song. The goldfinch resting on the branches of the flowering cherry tree announces the coming of spring, whilst the golden oriole surrounded by bright red cherries sings a song of summer. A bucolic collection with an elaborate palette of harmonious colours bringing together two of Les Néréides most successful themes.
