About this work

This painting shows a quiet street scene covered in snow. A bare tree stands in the center, its branches heavy with snow. Behind it, old buildings with dark windows and iron fences line the street, their rooftops dusted white. The colors are mostly muted browns and grays, with a few patches of light where the snow reflects. The artist used thick brushstrokes to show texture, especially on the tree and buildings. This makes the scene feel rough and real, like you could reach out and touch the snow. Look up impasto next to see how artists use paint thickness like this.
