In this sun-drenched winter landscape, Marc-Aurèle de Foy Suzor-Coté captures the quiet beauty of Canadian nature. Slender, snow-covered trees stand out delicately against a clear blue sky. With loose brushwork and a keen sense of light and atmosphere, the artist combines elements of Impressionism with a deep connection to the landscape of Quebec. The work is an impressive example of Suzor-Coté's role as a pioneer of independent Canadian painting at the beginning of the 20th century.
