More about this artwork

"A Winter's Evening" is a striking monochromatic woodcut by Belgian artist Gustave De Smet, created in 1920. This artwork captures the essence of a serene winter night through a unique and abstract perspective. The composition primarily uses stark black and white contrasts to depict what appears to be a snow-laden landscape under a starry sky. The simplification of forms and the bold use of negative space invite viewers to navigate through a fragmented winter scene, possibly of trees and snowdrifts, that evoke a sense of quiet and coldness inherent to winter evenings. De Smet's choice of woodcut, a method that involves carving into wood to create an image, adds to the textural richness and depth, giving the work an almost tactile quality.
