Efterårsskov - wall piece - Edith Hansen (EH)

"Efterårsskov" (Autumn Forest) - wall piece - Edith Hansen (EH) is an embroidery kit with an atmospheric forest motif in warm autumn colours. The motif shows a forest seen through vertical, dark tree trunks, where the light breaks through between the branches and touches the forest floor in orange, golden, brown and subdued violet shades.

The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread on Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The finished wall piece measures 33 x 40 cm and has a calm, richly coloured and nature-inspired expression.

A forest motif with autumn light and warm colours

The motif is built up as a view into the forest between the trees. The dark trunks stand vertically through the picture surface and create a clear rhythm. Some trunks are broad and striking, while others are narrower and lighter. This gives the motif depth and a sense that the forest continues behind the trees in front.

Between the trunks are light fields and fine lines that may bring to mind sunlight falling into the forest. The light lines create movement and give the motif an almost radiant focal point, drawing the eye into the picture.

The forest floor is embroidered in warm orange, golden, brown and copper-like tones. The colours give the motif a clear autumn atmosphere, as if leaves and light have gathered on the forest floor. Small colour shifts bring the surface to life and make the motif interesting to look at more closely.

Around the forest motif is a brown frame. The frame brings the composition together and emphasises the warm shades in the embroidery. It gives the wall piece a finished and balanced expression, where the colours of the forest stand out clearly.

Part of a series with four seasons

Autumn Forest is part of a series with four versions: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Each version shows the forest through its own season and colour mood.

In the autumn version, the motif is especially shaped by the warm colours, the golden light and the dark tree trunks. The expression is more subdued and earthy than in the spring and summer versions, yet still full of light and movement.

The wall piece can hang on its own as an independent forest motif or be combined with the other seasonal versions. Together, the four embroideries form a fine series where the same forest changes character throughout the year.

A wall piece with calm, depth and seasonal atmosphere

The finished wall piece measures 33 x 40 cm. The format suits the vertical tree trunks and the narrow view into the forest well. The embroidery is suitable for hanging in a living room, hallway, holiday home or anywhere you want a textile picture with warmth and natural atmosphere.

Autumn Forest - wall piece - Edith Hansen (EH) is not a detailed landscape depiction, but an artistic interpretation of a forest atmosphere. The motif is built on rhythm, light and colour fields, so the forest is experienced through mood rather than through small botanical details.

The embroidery is stitched with Danish Flower Thread. The thread gives the brown, orange, yellow, violet and light shades a soft and lively expression. The colours have warmth and depth, while retaining the matte textile character that suits classic cross stitch beautifully.

The fabric is Haandarbejdets Fremme linen 10B. The classic linen structure provides a beautiful base for the stitches and supports the motif’s balance between dark tree trunks, light sky and glowing forest floor.
