About this work

The Reader in the Forest by Robert Henri shows a seated woman in a pale blouse and dark skirt, absorbed in a book at the base of a tall tree. Dense, dark trunks rise around her under a deep blue-green canopy, while light catches the moss and forest floor in green and yellow tones. The work is executed in pastel or chalk with loose, textured strokes.
