Winter Landscape c. 1900

"Winter Landscape" is a black and white photograph by George Timmins, a prominent American photographer who lived from 1855 to 1920. Taken around 1900, the photograph captures a serene winter scene of a snow-covered landscape featuring a house with a fence in the foreground. This small, intimate photograph, currently housed at the Minneapolis Institute of Art, exemplifies Timmins’ keen eye for capturing the quiet beauty of everyday moments. The delicate details of the snow-laden branches and the weathered fence suggest the tranquility and stillness of a wintry day, making this photograph a compelling representation of the genre of landscape photography.
