Here a single pile of colored leaves is laid out against a plain white ground, so the subject is the leaves themselves rather than a landscape or a scene. Arrangements like this were a popular way to study the forms and tones of foliage, and they often appeared in botanical and decorative work of the period, when artists and designers looked closely at the shapes of natural things. Set on a blank field, the leaves lose their setting and read as pure color and outline, which is worth noticing when comparing them with the other fall images on this board.
