Wagoner Climbing a Hill (Roulier montant une cote)

Théodore Gericault

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a snowy landscape in a lithograph style. There is a row of buildings in the distance with a church steeple partially obscured by snow and trees. A man on horseback stands beside a cart covered with a cloth, being pulled through the snow. To the left, a group of men and horses are depicted in motion. The scene is in gray and white tones, emphasizing the winter setting and historical feel of the lithograph.
