This very atmospheric landscape has only the near foreground in local colour. The trees are silhouetted against what appears to be an ever-changing sky. The clouds would have been formed on the paper by rapid notation with the brush. The four distinct colour planes, including the intense blue, give clever aerial recession to the composition.
