About the piece
Created around 1890 by Friedrich Carl von Scheidlin, this oil on canvas study beautifully captures the interplay of light and shadow at the edge of a forest. The vertical composition emphasizes the height of the trees, while the soft, muted tones of the sky and meadow create a sense of stillness. It is a grounding piece that reflects the European landscape tradition of the late 19th century.
