EARLY WINTER, DUSK

Creator: George Brainerd Burr
Offered by: Jeffrey Tillou Antiques

Description
For a painter known to winter in warmer climates during his time in both Europe and the United States, it is of particular note that Burr chose to depict a winter scene. Burr’s bright and post-impressionist style of small interconnected dabs of paint enables him to convey a scene that is bold and cool yet soft, creating a feel reminiscent the day retreating and the season changing from late autumn to early winter in New England.
