About Artwork: (Around 1865) "This work, with its preliminary drawing left visible, is typical of Rousseau’s later style. In the distance a chain of hills is sketched in blue. A plain in the foreground is dappled in yellow, echoing the fragmented light of the sky. In the sky itself the thin application of blue paint leaves much of the millboard support exposed.The trunks and foliage of a line of trees to the left are sketched in brown paint and black crayon. A lone figure, sketched in brown, faces away from the viewer, contemplating the hills. The pervading grey of the millboard combined with the ethereal quality of the trees and the scudding white clouds lends this atmospheric scene a silvery light, but in fact the time of day is difficult to determine. The pink tinges on some of the clouds might suggest a time around sunset or sunrise." - (National Gallery of Art, London)
