This painting shows a lone, twisted tree standing on a hillside. The tree’s thick branches spread wide, almost filling the sky. Below it, the land slopes down to a distant horizon of fields and a faint river. The artist used loose, watery strokes to suggest light hitting the leaves. The background fades into soft, pale colors, making the tree stand out. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
