George Wesley Bellows - Love of Winter - Christmas Metal Ornament
This vintage art from George Wesley Bellows reflects the artist's love of winter and cold-weather activities. A 1914 blizzard blanketed New York in snow, providing ample opportunity for the artist to capture this wintry scene. The bright reds, yellows, and greens intensify the winter scene with brushstrokes that convey movement and speed. The diverse skaters are from various walks of life as they enjoy a lovely winter's day. George Wesley Bellows was an American realist painter, known for his bold depictions of urban life in New York City. He painted during the late 1800s and early 1900s. This design is set off by light blue-gray and dark blue-gray borders to prevent the image from being truncated off by the frame.
