1479. A WINTER SCENE ON THE ICE.
Hendrik van Avercamp (Dutch: 1586-1663). See 1346.
A winter scene such as Mr. Pater describes in his Imaginary Portraits (p. 91), with "all the delicate poetry together with all the delicate comfort of the frosty season," in "the leafless branches, the furred dresses of the skaters, the warmth of the red-brick house fronts, and the gleam of pale sunlight."
