This street scene shows a group of people walking in the snow. A man in a top hat leans against a building, while two children and two adults walk past him. The ground is slushy, and bare trees line the street, with more people in the distance. The artist paid close attention to how light hits faces and clothes, making some areas brighter than others. This painting captures a quiet moment in everyday life. Next, check out Realism to see more paintings that focus on ordinary moments.
