Product Description
Autumn Oaks, ca. 1878, George Inness, American. Historical artwork in public domain. Paintings by masters from the golden age of classical art. The composition of this picture is splendidly orchestrated, with a striking effect of unity and emphasis that did not exist in Inness's early works. He apparently painted this just after his return from four years abroad. His experience of painting in Italy and France led him away from naturalistic effects with much disparate detail toward coherent arrangements in which a single motif dominates, and everything else is subordinate. Here the sunlit trees dominate the entire landscape, their richness intensified by the deep foreground of shadow and blue violet tones of the lowering sky. Title: Autumn Oaks Artist: George Inness (American, Newburgh, New York 1825–1894 Bridge of Allan, Scotland) Date: ca. 1878 Culture: American Signature: [at lower right]: G. Inness Autumn Oaks is a late 19th-century painting by American artist George Inness. Done in oil on canvas, the painting depicts a grove of oak trees in the American countryside. Inness painted Autumn Oaks almost immediately after his return from a four-year trip to Europe during which he painted many naturalistic works. As opposed to some of his earlier works, Inness painted Autumn Oaks with a richer palette, and more focus on lighting and color contrasts as opposed to detail.
