Farm in Winter (Une ferme en hiver)

Alphonse Legros

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a scene with buildings, trees, and a hill. The composition is made with intricate etching, featuring fine lines to depict textures and forms. The color scheme is primarily black lines on a cream background. The foreground has a rough, textured appearance with a path leading to the buildings and trees. Details are rendered with cross-hatched lines to suggest depth and shadow. The background fades softly, with a clear sky at the top of the image.
