Windsor Forest is a 1806 watercolor by James Holworthy, a British Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows two views of a tree-filled landscape. On the left, a winding path cuts through a green forest with a rocky hillside in the foreground. The right side is a loose, inkier drawing of a single gnarled tree with branches spreading wide. The artist used quick, sketchy lines to capture light and shadow, especially in the tree’s tangled branches. The watercolor side looks like a quick outdoor study—soft greens and earthy tones.

Two pages from a sketchbook show views of Windsor Forest. The right-hand page bears the inscription "Windsor Forest."
