# Autumn [View the canonical artwork record]() ## Artwork - Artist: [WERENSKIOLD, Erik]() - Date: 1851-1900 - Technique: Oil on canvas, 120 x 151 cm ## Commentary In this painting the view, which seems to have been chosen at random, admits fencing and a barn at an unusual angle. Werenskiold transformed the Impressionist point of view of a city to a Norwegian farm. The throng of passers-by we might expect in a city scene is replaced here by two horses at work. The muted and somewhat melancholy colours show the influence of Gauguin's Impressionist phase. ## Related artworks - [Shepherds on Tatøy]() ## Attribution [Web Gallery of Art]()
