About the piece

Created in 1918, this landscape by American artist Dwight William Tryon is a quintessential example of Tonalism. The work focuses on the atmospheric effects of the 'blue hour,' using a muted palette of soft ochres and dusky blues to evoke a sense of profound stillness and quiet contemplation in the natural world.
