The artwork titled “Connecticut Hunting Scene” was created by the artist Childe Hassam in the year 1904. This piece belongs to the Impressionist art movement and is classified as a genre painting.
The artwork depicts an autumn scene within a Connecticut forest. The forest floor is carpeted with fallen leaves in various shades of orange and brown, adding warmth to the scene. Majestic trees with bare branches reach out in all directions, creating a sense of depth and immersion. In the midst of the trees, a hunter is visible, adding a narrative element to the composition. The sky peeks through the branches, displaying hues of blue and white, which contrast with the warm tones of the ground. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, characteristic of the Impressionist style, lending the scene a dynamic and lively atmosphere.
