In the Woodland is a 1850 watercolor by Marchioness of Waterford Louisa Anne, a British Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows two people sitting on a blanket in a wooded area. One wears a dark coat and hat, the other a red cloak. The trees around them are thick with leaves, and the light filters through in patches. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, like the scene was painted fast. The artist used watercolor, which lets the colors blend softly. The faces are not sharp—they look more like sketches. This style was new at the time. Check out Louisa Anne, Marchioness of Waterford next—she painted this.
Louisa Anne Beresford, Marchioness of Waterford (née Stuart; 14 April 1818 – 12 May 1891) was a British Pre-Raphaelite watercolourist and philanthropist.
