Late Autumn 1886

"Late Autumn" is a painting by the British artist John Atkinson Grimshaw, created in 1886. The artwork depicts a solitary figure walking down a quiet street lined with bare trees and a stone wall with a gate in the foreground. The atmospheric use of soft light, muted tones, and a hazy sky create a melancholic mood, typical of Grimshaw's work, often referred to as "moonlight" paintings. The painting evokes a sense of stillness and isolation, capturing the quiet beauty of a late autumn evening.
