The archways give this painting artistic balance and symmetry, reinforced by the equal 'weight' of flowers on either side of the path that cuts through the middle.

Archways are very popular, due to the way they open up a scene, and create a pleasing and luxurious effect.

Creates a powerful sense of romanticism, with the vivacious array of flowers leading you to the archway, which opens to a magnificent ocean view.

Reminiscent of one's ideal vacation.
