According to Michael Quick: "While organized in terms of the orange and green opposition that Inness had used for his sunset paintings since the 1880s, this landscape also employs a very thick atmosphere to create a strong effect of glow...the light coming through the mist has a decidedly active character." (George Inness: A Catalogue Raisonné, vol. II, New Brunswick, New Jersey, 2007, p. 333) Indeed, the artist's contemporary Elliott Daingerfield wrote of this work, "This is one of the very great sunset pictures of George Inness. I watched him paint it and he had in his mind the unity and dignity of Rembrandt." (Paintings from the Estate of the Late Potter Palmer of Chicago, exhibition catalogue, New York, 1922, n.p.)
