Forest with distant view 

"Forest with Distant View" is a watercolor painting by Johann Wilhelm Schirmer, a prominent German landscape painter. The artwork, currently housed in the Städel Museum, captures a serene and picturesque landscape. Schirmer's delicate brushstrokes depict a lush forest in the foreground, framing a distant view of rolling hills and a vast expanse of sky. The soft, muted tones of the watercolor evoke a sense of tranquility and harmony, characteristic of Schirmer's romantic style. This painting is a fine example of Schirmer's mastery in capturing the beauty and tranquility of nature.
