Stanley Roy Badmin painted Long Melford Green on a Frosty Morning in 1940 using watercolour. He focused on how the cold season changed the scene. The work shows a village green in Suffolk topped by the tall Church of the Holy Trinity. Badmin loved seasonal shifts and often painted them. He made this piece just before starting a big project on British trees. Sadly, the elms he painted later died from disease. Check out more watercolours by Badmin at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
