Berthe Morisot, a founding member of the Impressionist group and one of its most innovative painters, made this view of the forest of Compiègne, a royal hunting forest northeast of Paris long favored by French painters for its dense, atmospheric woodland. Morisot's rapid, feathery brushwork dissolves the trees and undergrowth into passages of light and color, characteristic of her lifelong experimentation with paint handling. She exhibited in all but one of the eight Impressionist exhibitions and was among the movement's most technically daring painters.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

It came packed so well that opening it took ten minutes. The clarity of The Forest of Compiègne makes it look like the original was photographed yesterday. It has held up through a winter of dry radiator heat with no curling at all. Perfect from start to finish.
Half of this worked out and the other half did not. It cost about what I would expect and not a dollar less. The condition on arrival was flawless, which I do appreciate. I have stopped thinking about it, which says something.
It arrived two days after I ordered, which I did not expect. I have already ordered two more for other rooms. It has made the reading nook feel finished.
My husband spotted this months ago and I finally gave in. The detail in The Forest of Compiègne holds up with my face inches away. The detail is sharp enough that I keep finding new things in it.
It came packed so well that opening it took ten minutes. The shading in The Forest of Compiègne has a depth I never noticed in books. It went straight into the home office and has not moved since.
