Pond in the Forest

Small landscape study, summertime, realistic close-perspective rendering, no staffage, green and brown colour tones. View of the surface of a pond from a flat grassy bank, water shimmering with luminous reflections, surrounded with reed and marshy forest. Flat-bottomed boat moored beneath a cluster of trees in a small bay in the foreground; the opposite bank with a pine-covered moraine knoll visible in the background. Clear, fair sky above. The artist’s trademark mood view, with barely visible motion.
