Winter Valley 1944

"Winter Valley" (1944), by American artist Lamar Dodd (1909-1996), depicts a rural landscape blanketed in snow. The painting showcases Dodd's signature style, characterized by muted tones, expressive brushstrokes, and a focus on atmospheric effects. The scene is dominated by a distant town, partially obscured by fog, and a foreground featuring a cluster of houses with smoke rising from their chimneys. This evocative work, measuring 97.3 x 128.1 cm, captures the stillness and serenity of a winter day.
