December Twilight

1887
19th Century
18 3/16 in. x 26 3/16 in.

Charles Harold Davis, American, (January 7, 1856–August 5, 1933)

Medium and Support: oil on canvas
Credit Line: Florence Griswold Museum, Gift of The Hartford Steam Boiler Inspection and Insurance Company
Accession Number: 2002.1.41
An exceptional early Davis, probably done in France where the artist lived (in Fleury near Barbizon). A very modest composition with a marshy stream receding diagonally across the picture plain. Using blended hues of magenta, blue and green to render the natural effects of twilight, the artist succeeds in conveying a sense of quiet and calm in which the only movement is a flock of birds in flight.
