This painting by Stanley Cosgrove captures a serene autumn forest scene. Tall, slender trees dominate the composition, their trunks painted with expressive, loose brushstrokes that blend warm yellows, earthy browns, and muted greens. The forest floor glows with golden hues, suggesting fallen leaves and filtered sunlight.

In the background, soft blue and violet tones hint at distant trees and open sky, creating a sense of depth and tranquility. Cosgrove’s characteristic style is evident in the rhythmic placement of trees and his use of colour to evoke the quiet harmony of nature. The overall mood is calm and reflective, celebrating the natural beauty of a woodland landscape in the soft light of early autumn.
