Artist, Dutch, 1576 - c. 1632

The image shows a woodland path with trees on either side. Two figures are partially hidden behind a tree near us on the left. The horizon is higher in the image where the path and trees converge. In the distance, a structure is visible. The painting technique uses loose, fluid brushstrokes with a sketch-like quality. The color palette includes earthy tones such as browns and greens, with subtle hints of blue and beige.
