Wild Country in the Forest of Fontainebleau, 1876. Additional Info: As the artist’s son Ulf turns around among the birch trunks, his body assumes a pose that resembles the slender, supple trees. Nordic nature was a common theme in 1890s art, but Carl Larsson’s daylight scenes with white birches stood out from the habitual twilight views (especially with pines against sunsets). The setting is Bullerholmen, an island in the Sundborn river, where the Larsson family used to go by rowing boat to bathe. Ulf, who is eleven in this painting, died in 1905 after a failed appendectomy.
