About this work

Weissenbruch spent a great deal of time in the village of Noorden along the Nieuwkoop lakes, where he ventured out to sketch, even in poor weather. He worked up these sketches later in his studio. In Autumn Landscape the paint layers were applied wet-on-wet in an ultimate attempt to capture on canvas the damp atmosphere of the Dutch polder landscape.
