This painting shows a forest scene at night. The trees are dark and the moonlight shines through the leaves. The forest floor is covered with shadows. In the foreground, the trees are tall and their branches stretch up towards the sky. The moonlight casts an eerie glow on the forest floor, making it seem like the trees are moving. The painting is held at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp. Look up more paintings by artist Adriaan Jozef Heymans.
