Description

Colors of Fall by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Colors of Fall by P. Buckley Moss is a signed and numbered limited edition giclée that captures the rustic charm of a historic watermill nestled in the beauty of autumn. The stone mill with its large wooden waterwheel stands gracefully along a stream, surrounded by trees glowing in golden and copper leaves. Soft grasses in the foreground sway gently, framing the mill and emphasizing the natural rhythm of the season.

This work belongs to both the Moss Fall Collection and the Moss Mill Collection, making it a perfect crossover piece for collectors who love seasonal landscapes and historic architecture. Moss highlights the enduring presence of the mill as both a working structure of the past and a timeless symbol of community.

Style & Technique

Moss’s folk-art style is on full display here, with bold outlines, warm seasonal hues, and a composition that draws the eye toward the mill’s wheel and stonework. In “Colors of Fall“, the palette of russet, amber, and sienna perfectly captures the richness of autumn foliage. The giclée printing process preserves every brushstroke and subtle wash of color from Moss’s original work, ensuring vibrancy and long-lasting beauty. Each edition is signed and numbered by P. Buckley Moss, confirming its authenticity.

Mood & Inspiration

The mood of Colors of Fall is nostalgic, tranquil, and reflective. Moss often found inspiration in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, where mills, barns, and historic architecture still stand as reminders of simpler times. Here, she ties the changing of the seasons to the enduring strength of the mill, suggesting both continuity and transformation.

Placement & Gift Ideas

This giclée makes a beautiful addition to a living room, study, dining area, or country home. It is an excellent gift for history enthusiasts, mill collectors, or anyone who appreciates autumn landscapes. With its crossover appeal, it’s especially valuable to collectors of both Moss Fall and Moss Mill pieces.
