Passing Train 

"Passing Train" is an evocative work by American artist Albert Bloch (1882-1961). Created in an Expressionist style, the painting depicts a scene with a figure standing in the foreground, silhouetted against a landscape of trees and houses. Bloch's use of expressive brushstrokes and muted colors creates a sense of atmosphere and mystery, capturing a moment of transition and solitude. The title suggests a sense of movement and passing time, leaving the viewer to interpret the meaning behind the figure's contemplation. The overall composition evokes a sense of unease and introspection, characteristic of Bloch's artistic style.
