Talvimaisema is an unspecified by Pekka Halonen, held at Finnish National Gallery.
This painting shows a snowy forest with bare trees and a winding path covered in white. The snow looks soft and uneven, with patches of shadow under the trees. Brushstrokes are thick and visible, giving the scene a textured, almost rough feel. The artist used lots of white and gray, but added subtle green and brown in the trees to keep it from looking flat. The signature in the corner reads *P. Halonen*, but no date is visible. If you like this style, look up impasto next.
