Denneboom is a 1909 oil by Jan Adam Zandleven, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Cultural Heritage Agency of the Netherlands Art Collection.
This painting shows a large tree with bare branches in the foreground, set against a backdrop of a forest and a gray sky. The tree's branches stretch out in all directions, with some leaves still clinging to them. The forest in the background is dense, with trees of varying sizes and shapes. The painting's colors are muted, with shades of brown, green, and gray dominating the palette. The brushstrokes are visible, giving the painting a textured look. The overall effect is one of serenity and calmness. The painting is held at the Kröller-Müller Museum.
Jan Adam Zandleven (6 February 1868, Koog aan de Zaan – 16 July 1923, Rhenen) was a Dutch painter, mostly of landscapes and still-lifes.
