About this work

This painting shows a snowy yard with a small house in the background. A tree with bare branches stands in the center, its dark trunk and a few red berries adding color. Blue window frames peek out from under the snow, and bushes with green leaves and red flowers dot the scene. The artist used thick, textured brushstrokes to create a sense of cold and quiet. The colors feel muted but pop in small spots, like the red berries and flowers. Look up Nicolae Tonitza next to see more of his work.
