Wooded Landscape
1667

From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
Wooded Landscape is a 1667 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a quiet forest scene with tall trees framing the edges. A deer stands near the center, looking toward the viewer, while a few others graze in the distance. The ground is patchy with grass and shadows, and the sky is soft and pale in the background. The artist used light and dark tones to create depth, especially in the tree trunks and shadows on the ground. This makes parts of the painting look almost three-dimensional. Look up *chiaroscuro* next to see how this technique works.
