From the collection of Victoria and Albert Museum
Landscape at Pen Pitts is a 1937 watercolor by Paul Nash, depicting Snow, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a snowy landscape with bare trees and a dark, curved shape in the foreground. The sky is pale with a yellowish circle that looks like the sun or moon. The ground is mostly white and gray, with patches of brown and blue shadows. The dark shape in the middle might be a fallen tree or a hollowed-out stump. The brushstrokes are loose and quick, giving it a rough, sketchy feel. Look up Nash, Paul to see more of his work.
The artwork depicts an undulating landscape characterized by ridges and hollows, featuring five distinct tree trunks.
