Summer Palace

Summer Palace creates an open, cultivated feeling, and the scene that unfolds in the design panels is a warm celebration of summer, fruit and flower. There are a number of larger birds that anchor the design, and the flower and leaf elements are kept quite contained to create a more open and sweeping effect.
