"Coin de forêt" (Corner of the Forest), a painting by Félix Ziem, showcases the artist’s mastery of landscape painting. Created between 1850 and 1860, the work depicts a shadowy forest scene with a hint of a golden sky visible through the trees. Ziem, known for his evocative depictions of nature, captures a sense of tranquility and mystery in this work. The painting’s rich colors and loose brushstrokes contribute to its atmospheric quality, highlighting the natural beauty of the forest in an impressionistic style.
