George Henry Durrie Winter in New England Art Print
Brandywine General Store
A premium archival print of Winter in New England by George Henry Durrie, painted in oil on board in 1852. The scene captures a quiet drama of winter farm life: a snow-covered barn stands at center, a horse-drawn sleigh at its side, while two men on foot and one on horseback deliberate how best to tend to the animals through a heavy snowfall. A waterfall commands the foreground, half-frozen in the cold, with a farmhouse and second barn receding into the snowy distance. Durrie — who spent most of his life in New Haven, Connecticut — was the foremost painter of the New England winter farm scene. His reputation reached its height in 1861 when Currier & Ives published his Winter Scene and Farmyard in Winter as popular lithographs, and continued to issue his works after his early death in 1863. Country Decor | Art Print #122. Available from Brandywine General Store.
