Winter Afternoon 1875 - 1891

"Winter Afternoon" is an etching created by the American artist Frank Anderson, who was born in 1844 and died in 1891. This piece, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, depicts a quiet woodland scene, showcasing Anderson's mastery of capturing subtle light and detail. The sparse lines and delicate shading bring to life the bare trees, dry grass, and subtle light filtering through the branches. The subject matter, a winter landscape, was a favorite of Anderson, who often explored the beauty of nature in his artwork.
