Winter 1811 - 1867

"Winter" is a lithograph by Julien-Léopold Boilly, created between 1811 and 1867. The artwork depicts a figure cloaked in dark fabric, seemingly floating in the air against a stormy sky. The figure's face is obscured by the cloak, adding to the sense of mystery and isolation evoked in the piece. Boilly's depiction of the figure and the stormy sky is characteristic of Romanticism, with its emphasis on emotion, the sublime, and the individual's relationship to nature.
