Village in the winter 

Egbert van Drielst’s drawing, “Village in the Winter,” depicts a picturesque scene of a small village blanketed in snow. The bare branches of trees stretch towards a cloudy sky, while a few figures move through the snow-covered landscape. The artist, who lived from 1746 to 1818, is known for his depictions of Dutch landscapes and cityscapes. This drawing, which can be found at the Städel Museum, provides a glimpse into the peaceful yet desolate beauty of a winter village.
