About this work

This painting shows a small wooden church with steep roofs and tall narrow windows. It sits in a snowy village with bare trees around it. Lucia Apolzan painted it in 1939, just two years after the church was built. The brushwork is thick in places, making the snow and wood look real. Look up another quiet scene by Lucia Apolzan.
