Bruno LiLJeforS
b. Uppsala 1860, d. Stockholm 1939
Forest scene with a black grouse in a pine. Signed
and dated Bruno Liljefors 1931. Oil on canvas.
80 x 76 cm.
In Liljefors' later paintings animals blend into their
right environment in the landscape. The colour scale
is principally dominated by brown and ochre tones,
applied with a technique that evokes that of the Impressionists
with its light touches of pure colours that

can be seen in this painting. Liljefors had an intimate
knowledge of countryside and wildlife and the relationship
between the two. After observing animals in
their natural habitats, Liljefors could with his paintbrush
accurately convey their behaviour, anatomy and
relationship with the environment as can be seen in
this painting as well as in most of his production.
