Wrap up warm, and step into this snowy scene by Laurits Andersen Ring, 'Road in the Village of Baldersbrønde (Winter Day)', painted in 1912, with Gallery Educator, Bethan Durie.
She asks: What techniques does Ring implement to create such a crisp, snowy scene? Where are all the people, and why are the houses dark? How does this landscape compare to Ring's other paintings?
Ring often painted the small village of Baldersbrønde on Zealand, Denmark’s largest island.
