About the piece

Painted around 1910, this work by American modernist Marsden Hartley showcases his expressive use of color and movement. The composition transforms a mountain landscape into a series of bold, undulating forms in deep purples and earthy reds, reflecting the artist's early interest in the spiritual and emotional power of nature through a post-impressionist lens.
