About the piece

Painted in 1919, this atmospheric oil study by Swedish master Bruno Liljefors depicts the lekking ritual of black grouse. The work showcases the artist's signature ability to blend precise naturalist observation with a soft, impressionistic landscape style, creating a piece that feels both grounded in nature and poetically elevated.
