Forest Path
by PAÁL, László, Oil on canvas, 65 x 46 cm
Around 1875-76 L�szl� Pa�l painted several pictures of the same topic. The picture space of these compositions is generally closed; in their centre there is a path or road leading the eye into the depth of the field, sometimes a figure is also seen. In this painting the deepness of the forest is illuminated by the sun radiating through the foliage. thus indicating the a presence of the outside world. This masterpiece is a personal and lyrical interpretation of the genre of “paysage intime”.
