Girl in Hammock (1894). Theodore Robinson (American, 1852-1896). Oil on canvas laid down on board.Robinson sets the solidly rendered figure within a broadly brushed landscape of vivid greens and yellows. He adeptly captures the play of light and shadow on the sun-dappled landscape and, to attain compositional unity, utilizes highlights of pinks and blues in the grass and trees that are similar to those of Miss Buttles’ clothes. The hammock adds complexity. -- source link
