Description: Artist Charles Cook Date 20th Century Medium Oil on CanvasDimensions Sight 10 1/4 x 25 1/4 in (26 x 64 cm); Frame 13 1/4 x 28 3/8 in (33.7 x 72.1 cm) Condition Report Minor craquelure, otherwise in good condition. Provenance From the collection of a Providence, Rhode Island gentleman. Description This landscape by Charles Cook is a serene depiction of a small town blanketed in snow. The scene captures the glacial stillness of a quiet winter day, with charming snow-covered houses occupying the middle ground. A small figure tending to two horses adds a human element to the otherwise silent surroundings. In the background, rolling hills covered in snow stretch beneath a heavy grey sky, emphasizing the cold, quiet atmosphere. Cook's use of minimal detail and soft tones perfectly conveys the peaceful yet stark beauty of a winter landscape. Inscription Signed lower left.
