About the piece

Created in 1894, 'Wonderland' is a quintessential example of August Strindberg's experimental and emotional approach to painting. This Symbolist work uses heavy impasto to create a tactile forest interior where a central pool of light breaks through a moody, swirling canopy of dark greens and blacks.
