"Olive Trees" is a painting by Konstantinos Maleas, a Greek artist who lived from 1879 to 1928. The painting, likely created during his lifetime, showcases Maleas's signature style, characterized by bold strokes and a focus on capturing the essence of nature. The dark, thick branches of the olive trees dominate the canvas, their gnarled forms creating a sense of age and resilience. The painting's muted color palette and the stark contrast between light and dark evoke a sense of tranquility and solitude. Maleas's artistic style is often categorized as Impressionism, and his artwork can be seen as a unique and powerful representation of the Greek landscape.
