No obvious manifestations of personification or manipulation of natural motifs are present in this work of art. It seeks to emphasize the lyrical atmosphere of autumn.

Just as the spring, summer and winter, the symbol of fall helped Čiurlionis express his ideas, however, the soul of this young and driven artist perhaps only craved to nourish itself with rejuvenating and life-affirming ideas, thus autumnal motifs can only be found in several other sketches, book cover designs, the musical prelude “Fall” (1904) and his poetic “Sonata” (1907):

Autumn. A deserted garden.

Half-naked trees sigh and cover the paths with leaves.

The sky is gray and so sad,

As only the soul can be sad.

From 2024-02-24 until 2024-06-08 this painting is exhibited in Museum Belvédère in Heerenveen, Netherlands.
