The graceful birch trees, by the water, slightly sway on a warm early autumn day. The blue water beckons while the clear sky peeks through the leaves, which are slowly changing their colours. The cool shade in the foreground is already strewn with soft leaves, inviting the traveller to rest and gaze at nature's beauty. This painting is part of Georges Rhyn's "Season's" series which genuinely depicts the four seasons of Quebec.
