About the piece
Created in 1887 by T.C. Steele, this oil painting is a quintessential example of the American landscape tradition. The work depicts a serene hillside in Vernon, Indiana, where the deep reds of autumn oaks contrast beautifully with the soft, hazy sky and the reflective surface of the water in the foreground.
