Van Gogh did not consider this painting a work in itself. He thought it "quite a study, " as he wrote to his brother Theo. In this painting, the effect of light and shadow is not quite realistic. The shadows of the trees do not fall in the same direction as those of the railings.

But it's still worth taking a look at this picture and soaking up its autumnal atmosphere.
