1876
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Sunday in New England is a 1876 by Albert Fitch Bellows, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting shows a quiet park scene with a dirt path winding through tall, leafy trees. A horse-drawn carriage with two riders sits in the foreground, while other people stroll or sit on the grass. In the distance, a church steeple and a white building peek through the branches, and a few more carriages and buggies are scattered around. The artist focused on everyday life, using soft brushstrokes to show light filtering through the leaves. The colors are warm but muted, like a calm summer afternoon. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see this painting in person.
Albert Fitch Bellows (November 20, 1829 – November 24, 1883) was an American landscape painter of the Hudson River School.
