{"product_id":"september-t-c-steele","title":"September - T. C. Steele","description":"\u003cp\u003eA 1894 oil painting by T. C. Steele capturing a rural path in late summer, rendered with the light-filled brushwork of American Impressionism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTheodore Clement Steele, a prominent figure in the Hoosier Group, produced this work in 1894. The painting captures the transition of the seasons, specifically the shift from late summer into early autumn. Steele utilised a technique influenced by his training in Munich, yet he adopted the lighter palette and broken brushwork characteristic of Impressionism during this period of his career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition features a dirt path winding through a rural setting. A figure and a child walk along the track, providing a sense of scale against the expansive foliage. To the right, a large, mature tree dominates the frame, its leaves beginning to show the golden hues of the season. The background reveals rolling hills under a sky filled with light, wispy clouds. The light quality suggests a warm, late afternoon sun, which casts soft shadows across the grass and the path.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSteele was known for his dedication to painting directly from nature. This work reflects his interest in the specific light and atmospheric conditions of the American Midwest. The brushwork is visible and energetic, conveying the texture of the grasses and the density of the tree canopy. By focusing on the quiet, everyday rural environment, Steele documented the character of the region. The painting avoids excessive detail, opting instead to capture the overall mood and the fleeting quality of the light. This approach allows the viewer to experience the scene as a momentary observation rather than a static record. The colour palette is dominated by earthy tones, ochres, and greens, punctuated by the clear blue of the sky, which creates a balanced and harmonious visual experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/portrait-of-charles-i-of-england-anthony-van-dyck\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003ePortrait of Charles I of England - Anthony van Dyck — Anthony van Dyck\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/samarkande-plate-6-compositions-in-the-oriental-style-emile-allain-seguy\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eSamarkande (Plate 6, Compositions in the Oriental Style) - Émile-Allain Séguy — Émile-Allain Séguy\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Theodore Clement Steele","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58582104244559,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58582131605839,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58582131638607,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58582131671375,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58582131704143,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58582131736911,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58582131769679,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58582131802447,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58582131835215,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58582131867983,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58582131900751,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58582131933519,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/September_Poster_CompositorV1_1787850332706.jpg?v=1787850678","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/september-t-c-steele","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
