Merton D. Simpson was an abstract expressionist painter and African art collector. Landscape Symphony is an abstracted landscape that depicts a white sun with hues of a dark blue-green sky. The connected polygons of vibrant red, green, orange are the main emphasis of the piece. They reach three bunches of short highlighted strokes in the landscape.
