From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
Haven is a 1850 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows three tall, skinny trees standing near a body of water. The sky is light with soft blue patches, and the trees have dark, wavy branches. In the foreground, a horse and rider are walking along a sandy path. The loose brushstrokes give the scene a quick, sketchy feel, like it was painted fast. The colors are mostly pale blues, grays, and whites. Next, check out impasto to see how artists use thick paint.
