Artist, American, 1895 - 1968

The image shows a landscape with an elevated perspective. It features a park-like scene with rolling hills, leafless trees, and a horizon high in the composition. The brushstrokes are smooth, portraying a serene winter day with snow covering the ground. People in historical attire are dispersed throughout the scene, some gathered around a grassy area and others crossing a stone bridge or walking on snowy paths. The color palette is mainly black and white.
