"The Eagle's Nest in the Forest of Fontainebleau" is an 1844 lithograph by Charles François Daubigny, a leading figure in the Barbizon school of landscape painting. This print depicts a serene forest scene with a winding path leading into the woods. The delicate shading and intricate details of the trees create a sense of depth and tranquility, characteristic of Daubigny's artistic style. The work, now in the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to the beauty and serenity of the natural world as seen through the eyes of a master of landscape art.
