| Autumn Ploughing in the Marshland, 1911 |
She is mostly know for her work as an Impressionist and she produced more than two thousand images. Most of those images are not very rich in detail.
What I like about this painting is how she captures the low, slanting light of an autumn day at high latitude.
One must wonder if the drowned mouth of the creek sees a good run of Atlantic Salmon or if it holds decent Brown Trout a little farther upstream.
Hat-tip to Lucas Machias for scouring the farthest corners of cyberspace for these kinds of images.
Nice picture so much different than her impressionist paintings I looked up.
ReplyDeleteI like it.
ReplyDeleteThis is a great picture ERJ. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of John Leslie Breck's work
ReplyDeleteI wondered about the ox used to pull the plow, I'm guessing that's the animal used where this was painted. I wondered what the neighbors used.
