This painting shows a dense forest filled with deer, cows, and wild animals. Trees tower over a rocky stream, and sunlight filters through the leaves. The colors are mostly earthy browns and greens, with some bright spots of yellow and white. Notice how the animals look almost alive, moving through the scene. The artist packed in so many details that it feels like a whole world. If you like this, look up chiaroscuro to see how light and shadow create depth.
