Skaters, Central Park c. 1932

Cecil C. Bell's "Skaters, Central Park" from 1932 is a charming etching that captures a wintery scene in New York City. The composition depicts a group of figures enjoying a snowy day, with some ice skating while others watch from the sidelines. Bell's use of shading creates a sense of depth and realism, making the skaters and the surrounding buildings feel both intimate and grand. This etching showcases Bell's talent for capturing the everyday activities of urban life in a visually engaging way.
