Piet Mondrian painted ‘Field with Young Trees in the Foreground’ around 1907. The medium is oil on paper laid on board. Cleveland Museum of Art holds it.

The painting’s support is paper laid on board rather than canvas. Mondrian used oil paints for this work, typical for his early period before his shift to abstraction.

Mondrian was Dutch and lived from 1872 to 1944. He began with figurative work before moving to an abstract style.
