Painted en plein air in September, this landscape captures the Blue Ridge Mountains beneath a veil of haze. Rendered entirely in Van Dyke Brown, subtle shifts in value draw the eye from the lively foreground vegetation toward Looking Glass in the middle ground, then into the quiet distance. Soft clouds drift across the sky as successive mountain ridges fade into mist, holding the warmth and stillness of a late summer day.
