Girl in White in the Woods
Girl in White in the Woods is an oil painting created in 1882 by Vincent van Gogh.
Of a study that Van Gogh made for Girl in a Wood or Girl in White in the Woods,[1] he remarked at how much he enjoyed the work and explains how he wishes to trigger the audience's senses and how they may experience the painting: "The other study in the wood is of some large green beech trunks on a stretch of ground covered with dry sticks, and the little figure of a girl in white. There was the great difficulty of keeping it clear, and of getting space between the trunks standing at different distances - and the place and relative bulk of those trunks change with the perspective - to make it so that one can breathe and walk around in it, and to make you smell the fragrance of the wood."[2]
