The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A snowy landscape with a road and trees under a blue sky with clouds and a moon. The painting "Winter Scene in Moonlight" by Henry Farrer depicts a winter scene. A winding road runs through the center of the image. Bare trees line the horizon and are scattered throughout the snow-covered hills. A full moon shines in the top center of the image. The sky is blue with many white clouds. The ground is covered in snow with some patches of brown grass visible. Several people are standing on the hills. A bridge or overpass is visible on the right side of the image.
