About this work

This painting shows a group of bare trees with bright yellow leaves standing in a snowy field. Behind them, a dark forest stretches across the middle of the picture, while distant hills fade into a pale, cloudy sky. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, with patches of color blending unevenly. The trees look like they’re caught between seasons—some leaves still cling, while the ground is already white with snow. The painting feels more like a sketch than a polished work, with visible strokes that make it look alive. If you like this style, check out the Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
