In this evocative landscape, Gustav Folke Henell captures the stark beauty of a frozen marsh at the edge of winter. Using textured, expressive brushstrokes and a soft, cool palette, he conveys the stillness of nature suspended between seasons. Bare trees frame the composition, while patches of snow and ice hint at the gradual transition toward spring. The scene reflects Henell’s sensitivity to the Swedish landscape and his ability to distill mood and atmosphere through subtle tonal contrasts.
