About the piece

Created in 1864 by Narcisse Virgilio Díaz, this painting is a quintessential example of the Barbizon school's dedication to the natural world. Depicting a rugged path within the Fontainebleau Forest, the work utilizes expressive brushwork and deep tonal values to convey the shifting light and moody atmosphere of the French countryside.
