About One summer's evening they went with Bianca Maria deep into the forest

The artwork titled “One summer’s evening they went with Bianca Maria deep into the forest” was created by John Bauer in 1913. It belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and is classified as an illustration. This piece is part of the series “Among gnomes and trolls.”

The artwork depicts a mystical, forested scene where a procession of characters, presumably including Bianca Maria, traverse through a dense and somber woodland. Dominating the scene are large, undulating shapes that represent the forest floor and foliage, rendered in muted earth tones. Majestic, tall trees rise from the forest floor, enhancing the depth and enigmatic ambiance of the setting. The characters exhibit fantastical features reminiscent of folklore, with one figure appearing to be a creature adorned in tribal-like embellishments and another similarly whimsical figure following closely behind a figure with flowing hair and a white gown. This illustration exemplifies Bauer’s adeptness in blending the fantastical with the natural, embodying a whimsical narrative through art.
