"Nature Sublime: Landscapes from the 19th Century". No exhibition catalogue. --- PROVENANCE --- fun fact: digital description: wall description: The spontaneous, sketchlike quality of this landscape suggests that Twachtman drew en plein air directly onto prepared copper plates. The almost bare limbs of the trees at the center evoke the transition from autumn to winter. Balancing the composition in the lower left is a small figure, possibly the artist, almost hidden in the grass. --- RELATED WORKS --- CITATIONS --- IMAGES web: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/1945.391/1945.391_web.jpg print: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/1945.391/1945.391_print.jpg full: https://openaccess-cdn.clevelandart.org/1945.391/1945.391_full.tif
