A Winter Day - Under the Elevated near Brooklyn Bridge is a 1907 paint by George Bellows, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a cityscape with a big bridge in the background. The bridge has many supports underneath it, and there are people and horse-drawn carts moving around on the street below. The colors are mostly dark, with some lighter shades to show the snow on the ground. In the foreground, you can see the details of the carts and the people's clothes, which gives you a sense of what life was like back then. The artist used watercolor and colored crayon to create this scene, which adds to its uniqueness.
