This landscape by American Impressionist Ernest Lawson was completed around 1904. The painting captures a cold day in a small New England town, possibly in the Connecticut Valley, looking up a hillside toward a red brick building, a mill, across an icy river or stream. Lawson was born in Canada but moved to the United States when he was young. He was a member, along with William Glackens, Robert Henri, and other modernist painters, of a group of artists known as The Eight. The group exhibited together in 1908.
