About the piece
Painted in 1917 by A. Y. Jackson while serving as a war artist, this work depicts Mont des Cats with a focus on its natural grandeur rather than conflict. The composition features a rich tapestry of rhythmic brushstrokes, balancing earthy foreground tones with a luminous sky typical of his early style.
