Forårsskov - wall piece - Edith Hansen (EH)

"Forårsskov" (Spring Forest) - wall piece - Edith Hansen (EH) is an embroidery kit with an atmospheric forest motif in light, fresh and warm spring colours. The motif shows a forest seen through slender, dark tree trunks, where the light enters between the branches and falls across the forest floor in yellow, green and 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, graphic and nature-inspired expression.

A spring motif with light between the trees

The motif is built up as a view into the forest between the trees. The dark, vertical trunks create a clear rhythm in the picture surface and give the embroidery depth. Some trunks are broad and striking, while others are narrower and lighter. This gives the sense of a forest where the trees stand in several layers.

Behind the tree trunks is a light sky in soft violet, pale and bluish tones. The fine light lines between the trunks may bring to mind sunbeams breaking through the forest and touching both trees and forest floor.

At the bottom of the motif, the forest floor appears in yellow, green and olive-green shades. The colours give the motif a clear spring atmosphere, where the light returns and nature begins to open up. The yellow fields add warmth, while the green tones create calm and balance.

Around the motif is a striking blue-violet frame. The frame brings the composition together and gives the wall piece a clear, decorative expression. At the same time, the darker frame creates contrast to the light spring colours in the forest motif itself.

Part of a series with four seasons

Spring 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 spring version, the motif is especially shaped by the light, the fresh green tones and the yellow forest floor. The expression is lighter than in the darker seasons and carries a sense of beginning, growth and renewal.

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

A wall piece with natural atmosphere and colour rhythm

The finished wall piece measures 33 x 40 cm. The format suits the vertical tree trunks and the elongated forest section well. The embroidery is suitable for hanging in a living room, hallway, holiday home or another place where you want a textile picture with calm and seasonal atmosphere.
