Théodore Rousseau. Outono em St. Jean de Paris, floresta de Fontainebleau.

1846. Óleo sobre tela; 63,5x54,9cm. The Minneapolis Institute of Arts

Go, sit upon the lofty hill,

And turn your eyes around,

Where waving woods and waters wild

Do hymn an autumn sound.

The summer sun is faint on them -

The summer flowers depart -

Sit still - as all transform'd to stone,

Except your musing heart (...)

(Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Autumn)
