About the piece

Painted in 1864 by P. C. Skovgaard, this work captures the rugged beauty of the Danish landscape. The composition features a dense stand of beech trees against an atmospheric, clouded sky, balanced by the stark presence of a fallen timber in the foreground, characteristic of Skovgaard's naturalist approach.
