From the collection of National Palace Museum
This painting depicts a serene scene of deer in an autumnal grove. The deer are scattered throughout the grove, with some standing and others lying down. The trees are adorned with leaves in shades of brown, red, and white, creating a sense of depth and texture. In the foreground, the deer are the main focus, with some looking directly at the viewer. The trees in the background are more muted, with softer colors that blend together to create a sense of atmosphere. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene. To learn more about this technique, look up chiaroscuro.
