The artwork titled “En el bosque” was created by Robert Henri in the year 1890. It is associated with the American Realism art movement and belongs to the landscape genre.
The artwork portrays a serene forest scene, with lush green foliage dominating the background. Prominent tree trunks rise from the forest floor, drawing the viewer’s eye upwards towards the canopy. The forest floor itself is scattered with rocks and covered in a thick layer of moss and leaves, depicting a natural and undisturbed woodland environment. The artist employs a rich palette of greens, browns, and subtle hints of yellow, capturing the tranquil ambiance of a forest interior. The composition emphasizes the verticality of the trees, which harmonizes with the horizontal spread of the underbrush, achieving a balanced and immersive portrayal of nature.
