Paisagem (Friburgo) is a 1894 oil by Antônio Parreiras, a Impressionism work, held at Pinacoteca de São Paulo.
This painting shows a landscape with a body of water in the foreground, possibly a lake or river. The water is dark, and there are trees and bushes on the far side. The sky above is light blue with some clouds. The painting is done in oil paint, and the brushstrokes are visible. The colors are muted, with shades of green, brown, and gray dominating the scene. There is a sense of depth and distance in the painting, with the trees and hills fading into the background. The artist who created this painting is Antônio Parreiras.
Antônio Diogo da Silva Parreiras (20 January 1860 – 17 October 1937) was a Brazilian painter, designer, and illustrator.
