About the piece
Painted in 1869, Per Ekström’s 'Landscape after Sunset' showcases the artist's mastery of atmospheric light. The composition centers on a rugged, silhouetted oak tree standing guard over a tranquil riverbank, illuminated by the glowing remnants of the day's last light. The dramatic transition from deep orange to cool twilight blues creates a powerful sense of quietude and transition.
