"Autumn's End," 1905
English artist: Evelyn De Morgan (1855–1919)
Canvas, oil; 39×75 cm
The De Morgan Centre, Guildford
This painting is an allegory of human life, portrayed through the changing seasons. On the left—youth and spring; in the center—maturity and harvest; on the right—old age and the approach of life's end.
Fruits and flowers symbolize the outcomes of a life lived, while the gradual shift from warm to cooler tones reflects the passage of time.
