About the piece
Created around 1895, this work by John Henry Twachtman exemplifies the American Impressionist interest in light and atmosphere. The artist uses a delicate palette of lavender, sage, and silvery grey to depict a rushing waterfall, focusing more on the ethereal quality of the mist and spray than on precise topographical detail. It is a masterful study of light reflecting off water in a high-key, quiet color register.
