3768-14. The wilder, naturalistic aesthetic of Alexander Park s landscape section. The visual appeal lies in the layered textures of the undergrowth--a mix of golden birch leaves and red shrubbery--creating a chaotic but harmonious "tapestry" effect. Unlike the formal alleys, this scene emphasizes density and verticality, with thin birch trunks contrasting against the soft, diffuse background of the forest depth. It evokes the intimacy of a forest interior (uncultivated nature), a deliberate romantic counterpoint to the manicured geometry of the nearby "New Garden". Aleksandrovsky (Alexander) Park in Pushkin (former Tsarskoe Selo) near Saint Petersburg, Russia, October 10, 2025
