Landscape with Trees and a Girl in White is a 1906 oil by John Quinton Pringle, a Impressionism work, held at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum.
This painting depicts a serene landscape with trees and a girl in white. The girl stands in the foreground, wearing a long white dress and a hat, with her hands raised above her head. She is set against a backdrop of rolling hills and trees, with a few buildings visible in the distance. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of tranquility and peacefulness. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and perspective, drawing the viewer's eye into the scene.
