"Vinterdag ved Hornbæk" (Winter Day at Hornbæk) is an etching by Danish artist Carl Locher, created in 1885. The artwork, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a snowy winter scene with a horse-drawn carriage moving along a beach path. Locher, known for his realistic depictions of everyday life, captures the quiet beauty of the Danish landscape, using delicate lines and subtle shading to portray the frosty air and the stillness of the winter day. The artwork is a testament to Locher's ability to convey the nuances of light and shadow, making it a powerful example of 19th-century Danish realism.
