The details have been selected and arranged to make a more pleasing scene. The figures and the buildings add to the human interest, while the small and precise detail of the plant forms give it a sense of authenticity. ## Related artworks - [A Hamlet in a Woodland Glade of Oaks]() - [A Watermill beside a Woody Lane]() - [A Watermill]() - [A Watermill]() - [A Wooded Landscape]() - [Cottage at the Edge of a Wood]() - [Entrance to a Village]() - [Farm in the Woods]() - [Landscape]() - [Landscape with a Hut]() - [Marshy Wood]() - [Road on a Dyke]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
