September 1890

Theodor Kittelsen's "September" is a dreamy, atmospheric painting that captures the essence of a late summer evening. The scene features a vast expanse of water and rolling hills, bathed in the soft light of the setting sun. The artist's masterful use of muted tones and delicate brushstrokes evokes a sense of peace and tranquility, while the solitary dragonfly hovering in the foreground adds a touch of whimsy and quiet contemplation. Kittelsen's signature style of combining naturalism with a hint of the fantastical is evident throughout the work, creating a captivating and nostalgic mood.
