A Winter's Walk

About this work

This black-and-white print shows a woman in a big fur coat with a high collar. She’s sitting down, holding the fur around her shoulders. Her hair is styled in a tall, curly updo, and she’s looking straight ahead with a calm expression. Behind her, there’s a blurry landscape with trees and a faint path. The artist used a sharp, detailed style to show the texture of the fur and her clothes. The background is sketchy, almost like a quick sketch, which makes the woman stand out.
