About this work

This oil painting titled New England Early Winter, created by Samuel Lancaster Gerry in 1849, shows a snowy rural scene with bare deciduous trees, a dark rocky outcrop, and a frozen pond. Two woodcutters work on logs in the foreground while a man guides a pair of oxen pulling a sledge along a snow-covered road toward distant farmhouses. The warm, pale light of the low sky gives the winter landscape a quiet, muted glow.
