Le Verdos 1983

"Le Verdos," a 1983 painting by Polish artist Włodzimierz Zakrzewski (1916–1992), depicts a large tree with gnarled branches dominating the foreground, overshadowing a building and other foliage. The painting's impasto technique, with thick layers of paint, creates a textural quality, emphasizing the roughness of the tree's bark and the intricacy of its branches. This realistic portrayal of nature captures the tree's imposing presence and evokes a sense of quiet contemplation.
