Fifth Avenue in Winter 1919

Childe Hassam's "Fifth Avenue in Winter" (1919) is an iconic depiction of New York City during the winter. Painted in an Impressionistic style, the canvas captures the bustling energy of the city, with a focus on the vibrant color of the buildings and the movement of the crowds on the avenue. Hassam utilizes short, broken brushstrokes and a limited palette of blues and grays to convey the winter atmosphere, making this artwork a captivating portrayal of the city in the midst of a snowy day.
