A stream threads between steep gorge walls where maple crowns burn crimson and ochre, their red and gold foliage mirrored in cold blue-shadowed water sliding over grey boulders. Shafts of amber light break through the canopy, filling the ravine with luminous haze and rich autumn colour, painted with lofty romantic grandeur in the Hudson River School tradition.
