Snow

Just by plugging the word "snow" into the search page at the National Gallery of Art site, I found a drawing and these two prints --
  • Two Children in the Snow, 19th century, by George du Maurier (pen, black ink, graphite). 
  • Stoops in Snow, 1930, by Martin Lewis (drypoint). 
  • Snow, 1936, by M. C. Escher (lithograph).
  • Comments

    Martin Lewis has the body position of the pedestrians exactly right. I can feel myself walking through that cold falling snow.
