Paul Fjellboe (Norwegian-American, 1873-1948) Western Mountain Landscape, n.d.
Oil on canvas Canvas: 21.5” x 31.5” Frame: 27.5 “x 37”
Signature: Paul Fjellboe
This autumnal landscape captures the serene beauty of nature with its subdued hues and soft brushstrokes. The mostly bare quaking aspens in the foreground stand in contrast to the lone mountain peak, half of which is dusted with snow. A few distant pine trees dot the hilltop, while golden grass stretches out towards the viewer. The grayish sky completes the tranquil mood of the piece.
