Snow scene in the Black Forest is a 1865 by Carl Friedrich Wilhelm Trautschold, a Impressionism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a snowy forest with bare trees and a winding path. The branches twist sharply against a dark sky, and the ground is covered in thick snow. A few rocks and a small stream peek through the white, adding texture. The artist used fine, quick lines to suggest light and shadow—almost like scribbled pencil strokes. It’s not polished, but it feels alive, like you’re looking at a real winter scene. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching next.
