Falling Leaves, Amersfoort is a 1908 by Wynand Otto Jan Nieuwenkamp, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This drawing shows a quiet village scene with a church and small houses tucked under bare trees. The trees have no leaves, just tangled branches against a pale sky. In the foreground, a stone bridge crosses a narrow river, and a few people walk along the path. The artist focused on tiny details—like the texture of the church roof or the way light hits the water. It’s a calm, almost lonely view of a place in late autumn. Next, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art to see more works like this.
