Shortcut through the Forest

The oil painting "Short Road Through the Forest" was painted by me in 2024, in a classical style. The canvas is mounted on a wooden stretcher measuring 60x70 cm. The painting is coated with protective damar varnish. The main theme is the winter forest. The painting also depicts a road leading into the thick of the forest; A horse-drawn carriage is driving along the road. The coachman turns at a fork into the forest; There is a shortcut, but it is dangerous. There may be a lot of fallen trees and even wolves in the forest, but our hero is not one of the timid. This work was inspired by the paintings of old artists and, of course, my imagination and desire to convey the charm and mystery of the winter forest. Thank you for your attention, with love A.
