Bruno Liljefors
b. Uppsala 1860, d. Stockholm1939
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.
