Pines at Połąga is a 1908 oil by Leon Wyczółkowski, a Impressionism work, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting shows a landscape with three pine trees in the foreground. The trees are tall and slender, with long trunks and branches that stretch up towards the sky. The leaves are a deep green color and are densely packed on the branches. In the background, there is a body of water that reflects the colors of the sky. The sky itself is a light blue color with some white clouds scattered throughout. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and tranquility. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the painting.
