"King Arthur's Wood" is a painting by Elizabeth Adela Stanhope Forbes (1859–1912), a Canadian-born artist associated with the Newlyn School of painters. The work, completed in 1904, is a tempera on canvas depicting a scene from the legend of King Arthur, which was a common subject in the revival of interest in Arthurian legends during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

The painting illustrates a moment from the tale in which the young Arthur, not yet king, ventures into an enchanted wood. Forbes's interpretation of the scene is noted for its ethereal quality and attention to the naturalistic details of the woodland. The figures are rendered with a Pre-Raphaelite influence, characterized by their detailed and vivid appearance, which was a hallmark of Forbes's style.

Elizabeth Forbes was a significant figure in the Newlyn School, and her work often explored themes of childhood and folklore, with "King Arthur's Wood" being a prime example of her interest in narrative and mythological subjects. The painting is considered one of her major works and reflects her skill in using tempera, a medium that was less common at the time, which she and her husband, fellow artist Stanhope Forbes, were instrumental in reviving.

"King Arthur's Wood" is notable for its contribution to the visual arts during a period when there was a resurgence of interest in British legends and the Celtic Revival. The painting is part of the collection at the Penlee House Gallery & Museum in Penzance, Cornwall, which houses many works from the Newlyn School artists. Elizabeth Forbes's contribution to British art through works like "King Arthur's Wood" has been recognized for its blend of realism and romanticism, and for capturing the spirit of an era fascinated with medievalism and folklore.
