The pale silhouettes of birch trees cut across a denser group of darker trunks, while shades of green and blue mingle with earthy tones in loosely rendered vegetation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMoving away from a strictly naturalistic depiction, the artist gives precedence to texture, rhythm and colour. Applied with a brush in impasto, scumbled passages and broken strokes, the paint lends the landscape an almost abstract quality when viewed at close range. The work continues the tradition of Post-Impressionist landscape painting while displaying the more expressionistic sensibility characteristic of the second half of the 20th century.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe reverse of the canvas bears a lengthy handwritten dedication by the artist, referring to “the forest in spring”, together with the date 1980. The painting is presented in its original or period white-painted wooden frame.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn good overall condition.
