Autumn, Mist

 

Arkhip Kuinji brilliantly conveyed unusual states of nature. In this landscape, enveloped in thick mist, he is drawn to the effect of the illusion of objects dissolving in space. The sky merges with the earth. The only distinct forms are the direction taken by the road and the outlines of the travellers and trees in the distance.
