The artwork, titled “Green Tree Form. Interior of Woods,” was created by Graham Sutherland in 1940. It is associated with the Neo-Romanticism art movement and belongs to the landscape genre.
In the artwork, Sutherland employs an abstract, almost surrealist technique to depict the form of a tree within a dense forest. The rendering utilizes dark, moody greens and earth tones to convey a sense of mystery and depth. The central tree form appears to twist and contort, its unusual shapes and textures suggesting a deeper symbolic meaning or emotional resonance. The interplay of light and shadow adds to the enigmatic atmosphere, inviting the viewer to contemplate the hidden mysteries of the natural world.
