1867

Dominant colour
Winter is a 1867 by Charles Jacque, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This black-and-white drawing shows a quiet winter scene. A lone person in a long coat walks beside two cows near a shallow river. Leafless trees line the bank, and the ground looks frozen or muddy. The sky is faint, with just a hint of light. The artist focused on everyday rural life, not fancy scenes. The title *Winter* is written below, and the style feels simple but detailed. Next, look up Charles-Émile Jacque (French, 1813–1894) to see more of his work.
Charles-Émile Jacque (23 May 1813 – 7 May 1894) was a French painter of Pastoralism and engraver who was, with Jean-François Millet, part of the Barbizon School. He first learned to engrave maps when he spent seven years in the French Army.
