This oil painting cardboard, titled "Winter morning in the field", the composition centers around a snow-covered field, with towering trees framing the scene and a solitary figure driving a cart led by two oxen. The scene is painted in an expressive, thick impasto technique, with bold, swirling strokes of color that evoke both the weight of the landscape and the brisk morning air. The snow-covered ground is painted in soft shades of pink, white, and pale blue, conveying the freshness of the morning frost. The artist's application of thick, textured brushwork gives the snow a palpable quality, with the surface appearing uneven and wind-swept. In the foreground, two large, gnarled trees stand on either side, their trunks a mix of dark brown, orange, and red. The foliage is sparse, with bare branches sweeping outwards in curved, almost abstract forms. The colors of the trees contrast beautifully with the cool palette of the snow-covered field. Their limbs appear almost sculptural, with each branch captured in dynamic, textured strokes. The trees help create a sense of depth and scale, their larger-than-life presence dwarfing the figures and oxen beneath them. The ox-drawn cart is situated in the middle of the painting. The figure, dressed warmly in dark clothing, walks behind the oxen, urging them through the snowy field. The cart is roughly outlined, with the shapes of the wheels blending with the surrounding snow. The oxen are painted with thick strokes of dark brown and black, with light accents highlighting their muscular forms and the curves of their bodies. Their movement through the snow adds a feeling of slow, deliberate motion, adding a quiet sense of life to the otherwise still scene. Above, the sky is dominated by a large expanse of soft yellows and greens, suggestive of early morning light. The warm hues of the sky contrast with the cool tones below, evoking the cold of winter while also hinting at the warmth of the rising sun. The light spreads across the sky, reflecting onto the snow, creating a soft glow around the figures and trees. A few wispy clouds add texture and movement to the sky, enhancing the sense of a crisp, clear winter morning. The overall atmosphere of the painting is calm and serene. The colors, textures, and brushwork combine to convey not just the appearance of a winter morning, but the feeling of it—still, cold, but also imbued with the warmth of life.
