Landscape with poplars /Storm is at hand/ is a 1902 oil by Władysław Wankie, a Realism work, held at National Museum in Warsaw.
This painting depicts a landscape with a few trees, likely poplars, set against a dramatic sky. The trees are positioned on the left side of the canvas, with their trunks and branches rendered in dark colors. The sky above is a deep, foreboding grey, with clouds that suggest an impending storm. The artist's use of color and composition creates a sense of tension and energy, drawing the viewer's eye to the center of the canvas. The brushstrokes are bold and expressive, adding texture and depth to the painting. The artist's skillful use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of volume and atmosphere, drawing the viewer into the scene. To learn more about this technique, look up chiaroscuro.
