In this intimate winter scene, Swedish artist Åke Rolfstadius captures a quiet path winding through a sleeping village. Bare branches reach skyward like delicate lacework, while warm red rooftops glow gently behind a wooden fence, softened by snow. The hillside on the left bursts with unexpected color, remnants of life resisting the hush of winter.
With bold, textured strokes and a painter’s instinct for mood, Rolfstadius evokes not just a landscape, but a feeling: the stillness of a crisp northern morning, where silence is thick and every footstep feels like memory.
