"Late Autumn" is a landscape executed in oil on canvas. The motif of fading autumn nature, with its muted palette and bare trees, belongs to the tradition of Russian lyrical landscape painting that took shape at the turn of the twentieth century and continued into the early Soviet years. The work is handled in a restrained realist manner, attentive to the mood of nature and the overall tonal harmony, without external effects. No reliable information about the artist or the circumstances of the work's creation has been found to date.
