Description
The Shortening Winter's day is near a close was displayed at the Royal Academy in 1903. It was praised in the catalogue : "... for the ingenuity of the painting, and for the power to convey the illusion of sunlight on snow, darkened by the shadows and leafless trees behind which the winter sun is setting, this landscape is a tour de force ...". The art dealer Thomas Agnew purchased the painting from Farquharson on 25th March 1903 and sold it to Lever five days later for £850.
Challenge yourself with this 1000 piece, intricate jigsaw showing the full length painting.
