Young Elms 

"Young Elms" is a landscape painting by American artist David Johnson (1827-1908). The painting depicts a group of elm trees in a field, with a single figure sitting in the foreground. The scene is bathed in the soft light of a summer day, and the artist's attention to detail is evident in the way he has rendered the trees, the grass, and the sky. The painting showcases Johnson's mastery of the landscape genre, capturing the tranquility and beauty of the natural world. It is a quintessential example of the Hudson River School style, which emerged in the 19th century and emphasized the romantic and sublime qualities of nature.
