Woods by the Oise River 1919

Gustave Loiseau's "Woods by the Oise River" (1919) depicts a serene landscape scene of a winding river, with a path leading towards the left bank. The river winds through a forest with bare trees, suggesting a late fall or early winter. The soft, muted hues of the painting contribute to a calming atmosphere, with the light sky reflecting the subtle colors of the forest. Loiseau was known for his Impressionist style and his emphasis on capturing the fleeting beauty of natural light. "Woods by the Oise River" is a testament to his mastery of this technique.
