This intimate work by Ghent painter Fritz Van Loo depicts a wooded landscape near Meudon, a region southwest of Paris favored by artists in search of luxuriant nature. Van Loo, a representative of Flemish Post-Impressionism and associated with the Laethem-Saint-Martin school, composes a serene scene of trees, light and silence. The warm brushstrokes, translucent colors and delicate structure of the foliage reveal a consummate mastery. The house, half-hidden between the trunks, anchors the composition and invites contemplation. The work perfectly illustrates Van Loo's ability to distill the peace and poetry of the landscape. A gem from his mature period, touching both the eye and the soul.
