New England Landscape
1907–1911

A vibrant expressionist painting depicting a riverside landscape with colorful houses and trees reflected in the water. The sky is rendered in shades of pink and blue, while the trees are highlighted in yellow and green. The houses show simple geometric forms with red and blue dominating the palette. The painting has a dreamlike quality with bold, loose brushstrokes.
