About this work

This painting shows a snowy forest with tall, bare trees. In the center, a dead deer hangs from a branch. On the right, a person dressed in dark clothes stands holding a rifle. The ground is covered in snow, and the trees look dark and rough. The artist used loose, sketchy brushstrokes to show the forest’s rough texture. The deer’s position in the trees makes it look like it’s part of the scene, not just hanging there. Check out the artist’s work to see how he painted light and shadow in nature. Eero Järnefelt
