Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf is a 1894 unspecified by Robert Loftin Newman, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This painting shows a woman in a red hooded cloak walking through a dark forest. She is holding a basket and looking down at the ground. To her right is a wolf, its eyes fixed on her. The woman's cloak is a deep red, and her basket is a natural brown color. The forest floor is covered in shadows, and the trees loom above her. The wolf's fur is a dark gray, and its eyes seem to gleam in the dim light. The painting is held at the Museum of Fine Arts Boston. You can learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro by looking up the technique.
