Gezicht op een bergwand met sneeuw 1907 - 1930

"Gezicht op een bergwand met sneeuw" is a small-scale landscape painting depicting a snow-capped mountain range, created by Swiss artist Adolphe Burdet between 1907 and 1930. The artwork is currently part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. Burdet was known for his meticulous attention to detail and the way he captured the textures of the natural world in his paintings. This artwork is a testament to his masterful use of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere within the seemingly simple landscape. The subtle variations in the shades of white and gray suggest the play of sunlight on the snow, while the delicate brushstrokes hint at the rocky texture of the mountainside.
