About the piece

This evocative oil study from circa 1850 captures a group of trees on a gentle slope with a masterful economy of detail. Part of the Yale Center for British Art collection, the painting prioritizes atmosphere and tonal harmony over literal depiction, creating a serene and contemplative scene that reflects the 19th-century interest in the poetic qualities of light and weather.
