In January 1914, George Bellows wrote to a friend, “There has been none of my favorite snow. I must always paint the snow at least once a year.” Soon after, on February 13, a major blizzard hit New York City, inspiring the artist to paint Love of Winter. Join us in Gallery 272 to take a close look at this lively winter scene.
This holiday season, we’re hosting short, 30-minute talks across the museum to take a special look at singular artists and artworks. Explore other spotlight talks here.
