Tall trunks and the canopies trees sweep to our left in a stiff wind in this horizontal landscape painting. The bottom half of the canvas is packed solid with leafy trees. Several spindly trunks shoot high above the canopy against a sky mottled with a sheet of pale gray clouds. The artist signed and dated the painting in the lower left corner, “F. VALLOTTON. 10.”
