In Arthur Hughes's 'Asleep in the Woods', a young woman rests peacefully against a tree, surrounded by a detailed forest setting. This oil on canvas painting exemplifies the romantic and idealised style of the Pre-Raphaelite movement.
Arthur Hughes, a British painter and illustrator associated with the Pre-Raphaelite movement, created this oil on canvas painting, titled 'Asleep in the Woods'. The painting depicts a young woman resting against a large tree in a forest setting. She is dressed in a blue dress, white apron, and brown hat, and she holds a basket in her lap. Her eyes are closed, suggesting she is asleep or in a state of reverie. The surrounding forest is rendered with attention to detail, with various plants, moss-covered rocks, and a glimpse of a squirrel in the distance. Hughes's style is characterised by its romantic and idealised depictions of nature and the human form. The Pre-Raphaelites sought to return to the detailed, colourful, and complex compositions of 15th-century Italian art. The painting evokes a sense of peace and tranquility, inviting the viewer to contemplate the beauty of the natural world and the quiet moments of human experience. The soft lighting and muted colour palette contribute to the overall atmosphere of serenity.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.
