Label TextA dull greenish tonality prevails in Ranger's bleak scene of wiry, bent trees, a cottage, and several anonymous figures. The paint is layered on thickly, like enamel, with yellow highlights in the sky and red in the fields. The scene depicted is possibly European.Note: The title "Landscape with Willows" was assigned following the publication of the 1911 Academy catalogue. It does not necessarily correspond to the painting's original title.
