Untitled (Woods in Snow) is a 1859 by William James Stillman, a Impressionism work, depicting Snow, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting shows a quiet winter scene with trees covered in snow. It's a simple and peaceful image. The artist used a lot of white to create a sense of calm, which is interesting because it was painted in 1859, a time when many artists were focusing on more dramatic scenes. You can learn more about this style by looking at the work of artist: William James Stillman (American, 1828–1901).
William James Stillman (June 1, 1828 – July 6, 1901) was an American journalist, diplomat, author, historian, and photographer.
