Autumn Landscape
1929

Impressionist-style painting depicting a vibrant autumn landscape with a prominent tree in the foreground, its leaves a mix of green and yellow hues. Rolling hills stretch into the distance under a sky with soft blue tones and fluffy white clouds. The brushwork is loose and expressive, suggesting the fleeting nature of the season.
