Winter 12P (60.6 x 45.5cm) Made by Matabei Goto

In the center of the painting, a snow-covered landscape captures the viewer's attention with its beauty: snow is falling and the houses are bearing the weight of it.

In the painting, there are people and dogs walking along a snowy road. A woman carrying a basket full of items appears to be on her way home after shopping.

This work celebrates the beauty of the winter landscape through the artist's outstanding technique and sensibility. Even in the silence and cold of the snowy landscape, beauty and depth pervade, evoking in the viewer the charm of winter.
