About the Item
A charming and atmospheric winter nocturne by Chester Bratten, titled "Hinsdale Sub-Zero," this oil on canvas captures a quiet, snowy evening scene in downtown Hinsdale, Illinois. A row of cars glistens under lamplight, and snow streaks through the air in thick gusts, illuminated by a glowing streetlight and marquee lights that evoke the small-town Midwest in the mid-20th century.
The cinematic quality of the composition—accented by expressive, impressionistic brushstrokes and a rich palette of blues and silvery whites—places Bratten among the many regionalist American painters working in a realist vein during the postwar era. There is a sense of quiet drama and nostalgia to this scene.

About the Painting
At the center of Oscar Daniel Soellner’s Lake Street, we see the stairway leading to an elevated railway station on what is now Chicago’s Green Line route. When its first section opened in 1893 as the second permanent elevated rapid transit line in Chicago, this route was known as the Lake Street Elevated Railroad. Chicago’s “L,” like the New York subway and rapid transit system, played an instrumental role in the development of the urban economy and the overall look and feel of the city. The formal aspects of urban railroads and the role they played in efficiently moving large number of everyday citizens across America’s growing metropolises were catnip for many American Scene painters during the first half of the 20th Century.
