A grassy slope, wild flowers, a few lone trees like trying to join the little forest atop. Beautiful composition with great perspective, done in Impressionist taste
Signed lower right W. J. Kaula
William Jurian Kaula (American, 1871-1953), one of the finest impressionist landscape painters from the Boston school. He studied in Boston and Paris before establishing studios in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. Kaula is considered one of the best landscape painters who trained under Tarbell and was known as a "Tarbellite". He exhibited extensively throughout his career, winning a medal at the Pan-Pacific Exposition of 1915. His wife, Lee Lufkin Kaula, was also a painter, and together they spent several summers in the countryside sketching. The couple maintained a studio-home in the Fenway Studios on Ipswich Street, Boston, from 1905-1953. Kaula's paintings show atmospheric landscapes in cool colors and often emphasize dramatic cloud formations. (Ref.: Smithsonian American Art Museum)
