In 1774 he painted, by royal invitation, portraits of King George III and the queen consort, Charlotte Sophia.
His portraits are characterized by the noble and refined grace of the figures, by poetic charm, and by cool and fresh colors, chiefly greens and blues, thinly applied.
Forest scenes, or rough and broken country, are the usual subjects of his landscapes, most notably Cornard Wood (1748) and The Watering Place (1777?), both in the National Gallery, London.
Such paintings as Dense Forest (1881), Pine Forest (1885), and Wind-fallen Wood (1888) are close in style to works of the preceding decade; however, their themes are treated with greater artistic freedom.
The paintings of the exhibition of 1893 bore witness to the exceptionally keen eye and high degree of craftsmanship of the 60-year-old artist, to the variety of his themes and techniques.
The painting is a fine example of Shishkin's ability to concentrate on the main features of a landscape, while at the same time portraying the many details which contribute to the variety of forest life.
