Light shines through the trees, highlighting the flowers and the monument's ornate copper dome. In the distance is a figure on the path. Who could this figure be?

+++++ And this is what Thomas Kinkade said about this work +++++ "Perhaps in a garden we are closer to our Creator. We certainly are closer to His creation. My prayer is that this painted garden will be a meeting place for many that would speak to their God in the silence of morning. Or the silence of evening. Or anytime in between. In our imagination we might picture His presence at our side. Or is it just our imagination? Do we see in the distance a gentle visitor approaching the gate?" ~~ Thomas Kinkade
