Indian Summer 1941

Arthur Dove's "Indian Summer" (1941) is a prime example of his abstract style, characterized by simplified forms and vibrant colors. The artwork features a dominant circular form, possibly representing the sun, set against a rich yellow background, evoking the warmth of autumn. The composition includes geometric shapes and layered colors that convey a sense of depth and movement, hinting at the changing landscape of the season. Dove's abstract approach allows viewers to interpret the work freely, connecting with their own memories and impressions of Indian summer.
