Description: | This picture records the January snow of 1955 on the River Coquet at Warkworth, Northumberland, near the artist's home. Blue-grey ice lies across the surface of the river, broken by a jagged streak of dark water on the right. The black shapes of branches, gate, and barbed-wire fence make stark patterns against the white of the snow. The artist has used pastel to emphasise the forms, and to bring out the texture of the tree trunk at the front of the picture. | License: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/about/copyright/ | Rights holder: | Tyne & Wear Museums | Subjects: | artists watercolours art | Source: | Tyne and Wear Imagine | Identifier: | http://www.imagine.org.uk/details/index.... | Go to resource |
