Autumn landscapes

Characteristic landscapes of autumn, with deciduous trees displaying their leaves changing colour while acquiring different hues, and loosening up their branches, served as motif to numerous painters.

As paisagens características do outono, com árvores de folhas caducas a mudarem de tonalidade e a desprender-se dos ramos, serviram de assunto a inúmeros pintores.
