About this work

This painting shows a quiet forest scene with a lone deer standing under a large tree. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving the landscape a soft, sketchy feel. Shadows and light mix in the trees, making some areas look dark and others bright. The deer blends into the woods, almost hidden by the brush. The artist used watercolor, which lets the paper show through in places, adding texture. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
