In Winter’s Blast, Josephine Muntz Adams trades open landscapes for an urban winter, capturing the cold with brisk, confident strokes. The frozen riverbank, bare branches and shadowed buildings speak of a city in deep seasonal pause. Honest, raw and alive with the sting of winter air.
Winter’s Blast was part of Josephine’s retrospective exhibition at Sedon Galleries in 1945.
A sharp wind cuts through the frozen hush of city streets.
The shifting sky before a storm, with dramatic clouds rolling over an open landscape.
One of a number of landscapes painted along the canals of Italy’s ‘floating city’.
Treetops catch the last pink light of day.
