"Winternachtlandschap met een man en een vrouw die een grote ketel dragen" (Winter Landscape with a Man and a Woman Carrying a Large Kettle) is a charcoal drawing by Belgian artist Emile Claus, created between 1859 and 1909. This small-scale work, measuring just 90mm by 140mm, depicts a couple silhouetted against a dark, snowy landscape. The figures, likely peasants, appear to be carrying a large pot, perhaps representing a laborious task in the harsh winter conditions. The scene's somber tones and atmospheric depiction highlight Claus's mastery of depicting the everyday lives of rural people in a realistic and evocative manner.
