Young Woman under a Tree at Sunset, called ‘Autumn’ 1855 - 1900

Henri Fantin-Latour's "Young Woman under a Tree at Sunset, called ‘Autumn’" (1855-1900) showcases a lone woman seated beneath a large tree, with a muted sunset painted in the background. The muted tones of the painting create an atmosphere of contemplation and solitude, with the woman's form barely discernible against the soft, painterly brushstrokes used by the artist. This piece exemplifies Fantin-Latour's penchant for depicting nature and the human figure within a tranquil, melancholic setting, highlighting the beauty and stillness of the natural world.
