Snow Fields (Winter in the Berkshires) 1909

"Snow Fields (Winter in the Berkshires)" is a 1909 painting by American artist Rockwell Kent, capturing a winter landscape in the Berkshires. The painting features a vast expanse of snow-covered fields, rolling hills, and a group of figures in the foreground, including a woman holding a child aloft, and another woman and child walking. Kent's use of dark silhouettes against the white snow creates a sense of depth and isolation. The painting is an iconic example of Kent's signature style, characterized by a directness and simplicity of form, as well as a sense of quiet solitude.
