About the piece
Created around 1850 by Théodore Rousseau, a leader of the Barbizon School, this work captures the rugged beauty of the French countryside. The composition centers on a dark, singular tree that grounds the sweeping horizon of the marsh, while the heavens are filled with heavy, light-catching clouds that demonstrate Rousseau's mastery of atmosphere and tone.
