About this work

This oil sketch shows a large, gnarled tree with dense green foliage rising from a grassy foreground, beside a slender birch with pale bark. A glimpse of blue sky and clouds appears through the branches, and a small white building is partly hidden at the right edge. The work is titled Wood near Ulefoss, painted by August Cappelen in 1848, and held by the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design.
