About the Item
Signature bottom left - Edvard Alexander (Alexis) Ankarcrona (1825 - 1901), was a Swedish painter and military (this is one of the last works of the artist!). This artwork perfectly demonstrates the charm of early spring, a time when winter still lingers in the air but nature is slowly awakening from its slumber. We see a country road onto which melted snow flows from the hills in small streams. The artist painted the snow with thin brushes, which allowed him to depict in great detail its porosity and heterogeneity, which snowdrifts acquire with the arrival of warmth. Trees are depicted in the foreground: spruce and birch trees, casting bizarre shadows in the rays of the setting sun and creating additional depth. In the distance you can see the roof of a house, its chimney billowing smoke, as if inviting the traveler to share with him the warmth and comfort in the cool spring weather. The winter sky is bluish-gray and cloudless. Ankarcrona's skill as a painter is evident in the way he captures the subtle nuances of the changing seasons. Antique oil painting on canvas, signed, unframed.
