Known for his landscapes and botanical illustrations, Nash left London for rural Buckinghamshire in 1922, where he painted views of his home and the surrounding countryside. Using surrealistic shadows, varied brushstrokes, and subdued colors, Nash creates an evocative, atmospheric view of his garden on a cold, bare, winter day.
