Impressionistic Autumn Forest Landscape Oil Painting

This is a square-format impressionistic landscape painting, executed in oils or heavy-bodied acrylics on a textured canvas support. The composition features a cluster of slender, birch-like trees in the foreground, characterized by white trunks with dark vertical accents. The foliage is rendered in rhythmic, horizontal impasto strokes of vibrant red, ochre, and pale yellow, suggesting peak autumn colors. The background displays a hazy, atmospheric perspective with a cool blue-grey palette, evoking a misty or foggy morning in the woods. The lower third of the canvas depicts a dark, shadowed forest floor and what appears to be a calm body of water reflecting the cool light of the sky. The brushwork is bold and expressive, prioritizing movement and light over fine detail. The work is housed in a contemporary secondary frame comprising a cream-colored inner bevel and a gilded gold outer edge. The frame shows minor surface abrasions consistent with light handling. The painting surface appears stable with some visible canvas texture, typical of 20th-century or early 21st-century decorative fine art.
