About the piece
Painted in 1863 by Janus la Cour, this work masterfully captures the transition of seasons. The intricate network of bare oak branches creates a detailed silhouette against a luminous, hazy sky, while the vibrant green of the field signals the arrival of spring. A classic example of Danish Golden Age influence, this piece brings a grounded and contemplative presence to any interior.
