One of the early paintings in which Rousseau depicted figure and forest landscape equally and in an incomparable way, thus creating a mood characteristic of his art, which will not be without influence on Surrealism. Comparable with two other portrait-format forest paintings by the painter: 'Un soir de carnaval' (1886; Philadelphia Museum of Art) and 'Rendez-vous dans la forêt' (1889; Washington, National Gallery of Art).
