About this work

This painting shows a lighthouse and a small white building next to it. The lighthouse is tall with a round top, and the building has a sloped roof with two chimneys. Snow covers the ground, and the sky is soft and pale. The brushstrokes are loose, blending colors like blues and grays. The artist signed it "B. Barnes" in the corner. The light on the lighthouse glows against the dimmer background, making it stand out. Look up Burt Barnes to see more of his work.
