Birch Forest

Let's say goodbye to November with this extremely autumnish landscape painted by Gustav Klimt. This is a perfect depiction of a forest from Central Europe.

In Birch Forest, Klimt envelops the viewer in a timeless woodland setting; no human beings disturb the forested peace, no drifting clouds or ephemeral rain showers suggest temporality. The only hint of the passing of time is in the carpet of golden leaves that blanket the ground. Their blazing reds, ambers, and golds remind the viewer of the coming of Autumn and create a rich carpet that stretches back nearly to the top of the composition. The bed of leaves serves as a foil to the elegant vertical lines of the birch trees, each trunk carefully delineated in its individuality. The irregular patterns on the bark of each tree collapse into two-dimensionality, creating a flattened scrim of color, a veil of pattern and design.
