"Snow Play" is a 1910 oil painting by German artist Richard Friese, known for his animal paintings. The piece depicts a polar bear family in a snowy arctic landscape. The mother bear stands on a ridge of ice, watching over her two cubs as they play in the snow. The painting captures the serene beauty of the arctic environment, showcasing Friese's talent for realism and detail. The use of cool blues and whites creates a sense of vastness and solitude. "Snow Play" is a testament to Friese's ability to portray the natural world with both precision and artistic vision.
