Early Evening, After Snowfall 1906

"Early Evening, After Snowfall" (1906) by Childe Hassam is a captivating Impressionist painting that showcases a quiet moment in a snow-covered city street. The soft, pastel hues of the fading daylight create a sense of serenity, while the brushstrokes capture the fleeting light reflecting off the freshly fallen snow. The figures in the scene, a woman with an umbrella and a man with a shovel, add a touch of realism and provide a glimpse into the everyday life of the city. This work reflects Hassam's penchant for depicting the beauty of urban landscapes and his mastery of capturing the subtle nuances of light and color.
