Last Evening of the Year
1926

A painting depicting a snowy landscape at dusk with a vibrant red sky and a large, glowing sun. Bare trees and a small, dark house with a chimney are silhouetted against the fiery backdrop. Snow covers the ground and the roofs, and the scene conveys a quiet, wintry atmosphere. There are handwritten notes and signatures at the bottom of the artwork.
