Snow Scene
1935
This winter landscape presents an urban scene dominated by a tall residential building rendered in warm beige tones that rise prominently against a dusky, lavender tinged sky. In the foreground, a snow covered ground scattered with dark stones or rocks extends toward a geometric fence or railing in the middle distance. Bare, skeletal tree branches frame the composition on either side, their dark silhouettes emphasizing the bleakness of winter, while distant buildings with illuminated windows suggest the presence of human habitation beyond the immediate scene.
