Peisaj de pădure toamna is a 1915 by Arthur Verona (Garguromin), held at National Museum of Art of Romania.
This painting shows a dark forest in autumn. Tall trees with yellowish leaves fill the scene, their trunks thick and gnarled. The ground is shadowy, with patches of sunlight breaking through the canopy. The colors are mostly browns and greens, with some bright yellows where light hits the leaves. The brushstrokes are loose and visible, giving the trees a textured, almost rough look. It feels like the artist wanted to show the forest’s mood rather than every single detail.

Arthur Verona (Garguromin) painted the Romanian countryside in the early 20th century—rivers, riders, forests, and quiet rooms.
