About this work

This painting shows a small town by a river in autumn. The buildings are simple, with some white walls and dark roofs. Trees along the riverbank have bare branches, and the water looks calm. The colors are mostly browns, greens, and blues, with a few bright spots. The artist used loose, quick brushstrokes that make the scene feel alive. The watercolor looks slightly wet, with some areas blending softly while others stay sharp. Check out Harald Krogh Stabell next to see more of his work.
