The artwork entitled “November, Cos Cob” was created by Childe Hassam in 1902. It belongs to the Impressionism art movement and falls under the cityscape genre.
The artwork depicts a serene autumnal scene in the small town of Cos Cob. In the foreground, a large tree with barren branches stands on a leaf-covered ground, symbolizing the transition of seasons. Scattered around the tree are a few people, engaged in leisurely activities, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the townsfolk. The presence of buildings and the muted, earthy color palette contribute to a calm and nostalgic atmosphere. The artist’s impressionistic approach is evident in the loose brushstrokes and the play of light and shadow, capturing the essence of a quiet November day.
