Image: Snow scene
ID:  356
Artist:  Fisher, William Mark
Artist Birth Date:  1841
Artist Death Date:  1923
Artist Country: American/British
Title of Work:  Snow scene
Date of Work:  1894
Medium:  oil
Period/Style:  nineteenth century
URL:  http://www.tate.org.uk/servlet/ViewWork?cgroupid=999999961&workid=4338&searchid=9162
Citation:  http://www.rehsgalleries.com/william_mark_fisher.htm
Index Words:  haystacks, snow
Place:  England
Notes:  The useful Rehs Gallery biography identifies those artists who influenced Fisher, notably Inness in Boston, and Sisley in Paris. Inadequately appreciated in either America or France he moved to England, where George Moore described him as 'England's greatest living landscape painter.' This example of his work is an impressionist study of a bare orchard in the snow; beyond the fence between orchard and farm buildings are a number of loaf-shaped, snow-capped haystacks.

Image: Frosty March morning
ID:  379
Artist:  Clausen, George
Artist Birth Date:  1852
Artist Death Date:  1944
Artist Country: British
Title of Work:  Frosty March morning
Date of Work:  1904
Medium:  oil
Period/Style:  twentieth century
URL:  http://www.tate.org.uk/servlet/ViewWork?cgroupid=999999961&workid=2277&searchid=5917
Citation:  
Index Words:  haystack
Place:  England
Notes:  The Tate biography of Clausen identifies the work of Lhermitte and Bastien-Lepage (especially the Hay Gatherers, ID 673) as important influences in his phase of rustic naturalism. The tradition goes back to Millet as does the earthy stoicism of this work -- a man digging in frozen ground with a frost-covered haystack in the background.

Image: Farm at Montfoucault, snow effect
ID:  532
Artist:  Pissarro, Camille
Artist Birth Date:  1830
Artist Death Date:  1903
Artist Country: French
Title of Work:  Farm at Montfoucault, snow effect
Date of Work:  1876
Medium:  oil
Period/Style:  nineteenth century
URL:  http://www.the-athenaeum.org/art/detail.php?ID=12122
Citation:  Impressionists in winter: effets de neige. Washington, DC: Phillips Collection, 1998
Index Words:  fodder, winter
Place:  France
Notes:  Several Impressionists tried to capture the elusive 'effets de neige' the flickering reflective effects of snow on winter landscapes, both urban and rural. This Pissarro painting, now in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, shows a farmer, followed by a sheep, carrying a bundle of hay into a snow-covered farmyard. Austere whites dominate the composition, but there is warmth in the stone walls of the farm buildings, in the sheep's fleece, and especially in the hay, a minor evocation of summer. The invaluable Athenaeum website dates the work at 1874. The 1998 exhibition catalogue dates it at 1876. See ID 533 for another snow painting from the latter exhibit.
