Forêt de Compiègne 1885

"Forêt de Compiègne" (1885) by Berthe Morisot is a captivating landscape painting that showcases the Impressionist movement's fascination with capturing fleeting moments in nature. Morisot's signature loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors evoke the dappled light filtering through the trees of the Compiègne Forest. The viewer's eye is drawn through the composition, guided by the interplay of light and shadow on the trees, foliage, and forest floor, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. This artwork is a testament to Morisot's talent for capturing the delicate beauty of the natural world with a unique, feminine sensibility.
