About the piece

Painted in 1908, this work showcases Marsden Hartley's early exploration of expressive, textured landscapes. The composition features a rich tapestry of autumn reds, oranges, and greens in the foreground against a massive, brooding mountain, rendered with the bold, rhythmic brushwork that would become a hallmark of his American modernist style.
