About this work

This print shows a quiet village in a snowy landscape. Tall trees line a road that cuts through the scene, and a few people walk or stand near a small stream. The sky is heavy with dark clouds, but the ground is covered in fresh snow, giving everything a muted, cool tone. The title says it’s *Crowhurst, Sussex*, a real place in England. The artist made this print in 1902, capturing how people lived in rural areas back then. If you like this kind of scene, check out The Cleveland Museum of Art.
