Cresheim Glen, Wissahickon, Autumn — Fine Art

Cresheim Glen, Wissahickon, Autumn shows a creek winding under trees with leaves turning warm in the season. Thomas Moran worked in the landscape painting tradition, building scenes from careful observation of American woods and water.

The fine art print comes ready to hang. The frame comes in four finishes, white, wood, dark wood and black, and gives the picture a clear edge on the wall. A wood frame suits the warm leaves best, because the wood grain sits near the same tone as the autumn branches.

It works on the stairwell wall at the turn, where you pass it twice a day. From the landing you catch the water line and the tree tops, and in the hall light the frame edge reads clean against the picture.
